for any given finite abelian group‎, ‎we give factorizations of the group determinant in the group algebra of any subgroups‎. ‎the factorizations is an extension of dedekind's theorem‎. ‎the extension leads to a generalization of dedekind's theorem‎.

a boundary integral method is used to simulate spilling breakers. the bottom is also included inthe introduced closed boundary and the problem is directly solved in the physical plane. the method has beenshown to be remarkably stable, and no numerical instability has occurred in any of the calculations. theresults reveal that both the momentum and total energy are almost constant in time during...

in this paper, by modifying cheng-yau$'$s technique to complete hypersurfaces in $s^{n+1}(1)$, we prove a rigidity theorem under the hypothesis of the mean curvature and the normalized scalar curvature being linearly related which improve the result of [h. li, hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms, {em math. ann.} {305} (1996), 665--672].

a characteriation of continuity of the $p$-$lambda$-variation function is given and the helly's selection principle for $lambda bv^{(p)}$ functions is established. a characterization of the inclusion of waterman-shiba classes into classes of functions with given integral modulus of continuity is given. a useful estimate on modulus of variation of functions of class $lambda bv^{(p)}$ is found.
