  The Weyl modules in the sense of V.Chari and A.Pressley [CP] over the current
Lie algebra on an affine variety are studied. We show that local Weyl modules
are finite-dimensional and generalize the tensor product decomposition theorem
from [CP].
  More explicit results are stated for currents on a non-singular affine
variety of dimension $d$ with coefficients in the Lie algebra $sl_r$. The Weyl
modules with highest weights proportional to the vector representation one are
related to the multi-dimensional analogs of harmonic functions. The dimensions
of such local Weyl modules are calculated in the following cases.
  For $d=1$ we show that the dimensions are equal to powers of $r$. For $d=2$
we show that the dimensions are given by products of the higher Catalan numbers
(the usual Catalan numbers for $r=2$). We finally formulate a conjecture for an
arbitrary $d$ and $r=2$.
