Popis: Using the natural notion of {\em Hasse--Schmidt derivations on an exterior algebra}, we relate two classical and seemingly unrelated subjects. The first is the celebrated Cayley--Hamilton theorem of linear algebra, "{\em each endomorphism of a finite-dimensional vector space is a root of its own characteristic polynomial}", and the second concerns the expression of the bosonic vertex operators occurring in the representation theory of the (infinite-dimensional) Heinsenberg algebra.
