The present invention provides a catalyst for olefin polymerization in which an olefin (co) polymer can be obtained with a high polymerization activity, and a polymerization method for olefins using the catalyst. This catalyst for olefin polymerization is composed of a transition metal compound (A) represented by formula (I):n n n n n n n n M: Atoms of Groups 3 to 11 of the Periodic Tablen n n U: R 2 -C, N, Pn n n A: N, Pn n n Q: R 3 -C, N, Pn n n S: R 4 -C, N, Pn n n T: R 5 -C, N, Pn n n M: 2 ~ 6n n n R 1 to R 5 : hydrogen, a hydrocarbon group, a silicon-containing group, etc. (when M is an atom of group 6 of the periodic table, R 1 is not an aromatic hydrocarbon group)n n n N: number satisfying valence of Mn n n X: halogen, hydrocarbon group, etc. |
