The paper is about the structure of the tame kernel K 2 (O) for certain quadratic number fields. There has been recent progress in making explicit the 4-rank of the tame kernel of quadratic number fields and even in obtaining results about the 8-rank. The emphasis of this paper is to determine the 4

โฆ Synopsis
The paper is to investigate the structure of the tame kernel K 2 O F for certain quadratic number fields F ; which extends the scope of Conner and Hurrelbrink (J. Number Theory 88 (2001), 263-282). We determine the 4-rank and the 8-rank of the tame kernel, the Tate kernel, and the 2-part of the class group. Our characterizations are in terms of binary quadratic forms X
The results are very useful for numerical computations.

In this paper a series representation of the joint density and the joint distribution of a quadratic form and a linear form in normal variables is developed. The expansion makes use of Laguerre polynomials. As an example the calculation of the joint distribution of the mean and the sample variance i
## Abstract A new class of nonlinear partial differential equations with distributed in space and time stateโdependent delay is investigated. We find appropriate assumptions on the kernel function which represents the stateโdependent delay and discuss advantages of this class. Local and longโtime a
A result of Strunkov on generalised conjugacy classes of groups is most conveniently expressed in terms of the P-matrix of an association scheme. This result is dual to a result of Blichfeldt on permutation characters, which has been shown by Cameron and Kiyota to hold for arbitrary characters and l
