Let $ X, Y $ be smooth affine varieties over $ \mathbb C $. Let $ T : X \rightarrow Y $ be a dominant quasi-finite morphism and let $ T^\# : \mathbb C[Y] \rightarrow \mathbb C[X] $ be the resulting map on coordinate rings.

($ T $ being quasi-finite means that it can be factored as an open embedding followed by a finite morphism. It also means that $T^\# $ is injective and every element of $\mathbb C[X] $ is algebraic over $ \mathbb C[Y] $.)

Let $ D(X) $ denote the ring of differential operators on $ X $. Is the following statement is true?

Let $ d \in D(X) $. Suppose that $ d(T^\#(f)) = 0 $ for all $ f \in \mathbb C[Y] $. Then $ d = 0 $.

Differential operators and quasi-finite morphisms

Let $ X, Y $ be smooth affine varieties over $ \mathbb C $. Let $ T : X \rightarrow Y $ be a quasi-finite morphism and let $ T^\# : \mathbb C[Y] \rightarrow \mathbb C[X] $ be the resulting map on coordinate rings.
