The note deals with the Gaudin model associated with the tensor product of n irreducible finite-dimensional sl_{N+1}-modules marked by distinct complex numbers z_1,..., z_n. The Bethe Ansatz is a method to construct common eigenvectors of the Gaudin hamiltonians by means of chosen singular vectors in the factors and z_j's. These vectors are called Bethe vectors. The question if the Bethe vectors are non-zero vectors is open. By the moment, the only way to verify that was based on a relation to critical points of the master function of the Gaudin model, and non-triviality of a Bethe vector was proved only in the case when the corresponding critical point is non-degenerate ([ScV], [MV1]). However degenerate critical points do appear in the Gaudin model (see Section12 of [ReV]). We believe that the Bethe vectors never vanish, and suggest an approach that does not depend on non-degeneracy of the corresponding critical point. The idea is for a Bethe vector to choose a suitable subspace in the weight space and to check that the projection of the Bethe vector to this subspace is non-zero. We apply this approach to verify non-triviality of Bethe vectors in new examples.
