Abstract

A catalyst for .alpha.-olefin polymerization which comprises the following components (A) and (B): PA1 component (A), which is a transition metal compound represented by the formula EQU Q(C.sub.5 H.sub.4-m R.sup.1.sub.m)(C.sub.5 H.sub.4-n R.sup.2.sub.n)MeXY wherein (C.sub.5 H.sub.4-m R.sup.1.sub.m) and (C.sub.5 H.sub.4-n R.sup.2.sub.n) respectively represent a conjugated five-membered ring ligand coordinating to a metal Me; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 which may be the same or different and a plurality of each of which can be bonded together, respectively represent a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, an alkoxy group, a silicon-containing hydrocarbyl group, a phosphorus-containing hydrocarbyl group, a nitrogen-containing hydrocarbyl group or a boron-containing hydrocarbyl group; Q represents a bonding group which crosslinks the two conjugated five-membered ring ligand; Me represents a transition metal of the IVB-VIB group in the Periodic Table; X and Y, which may be the same or different, respectively represent hydrogen, a halogen atoms, a hydrocarbyl group, an alkoxy group, an amino group, a phosphorus-containing hydrocarbyl group or a silicon-containing hydroca…
