The purpose of this article is to give, for any (commutative) ring A, an explicit minimal set of generators for the ring of multisymmetric functions TSAd[x(1),...,x(r)]) = (A[x(1),...,x(r)](circle times)A(d))8(d) A as an A-algebra. In characteristic zero, i.e. when A is a Q-algebra, a minimal set of generators has been known since the 19(th) century. A rather si-nall generating set in the general case has also recently been given by Vaccarino but it is not minimal in general. We also give a sharp degree bound oil the generators, improving the degree bound previously obtained by Fleischmann. As Gamma(d)(A) (A[x(1),...,x(r)]) = TSAd (A[x(1),...,x(r)]) we also obtain generators for di A vided powers algebras: If B is a finitely generated A-algebra with a given surjection A[x(1), x(2),...,x(r)] --> B then using the corresponding surjection Gamma(d)(A) (A[x(1),...,x(r)]) --> Gamma(d)(A) (B) we get generators for Gamma(d)(A) (B).
