We study the cyclic $U(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$-module generated by the $l$-th power of the $\alpha$-determinant. When $l$ is a non-negative integer, for all but finite exceptional values of $alpha$, one shows that this cyclic module is isomorphic to the $n$-th tensor space $(S^l(\mathbb{C}^n))^{\otimes n}$ of the symmetric $l$-th tensor space of $\mathbb{C}^n$. If $alpha$ is exceptional, then the structure of the module changes drastically, i.e. some irreducible representations which are the irreducible components of the decomposition of $(S^l(\mathbb{C}^n))^{\otimes n}$ disappear in the decomposition of the cyclic module. The degeneration of each isotypic component of the cyclic module is described by a matrix whose size is given by a Kostka number and entries are polynomials in $alpha$ with rational coefficients. As a special case, we determine the matrix in a full of the detail for the case where $n=2$; the matrix becomes a scalar and is essentially given by the classical Jacobi polynomial. Moreover, we prove that these polynomials are unitary.
