For instance, Reduce[D[A, Lambda[in]] == 0, Lambda[in]] Reduce[D[A, Lambda[in]] == 0 && k > 0, Lambda[in]] Reduce[D[A, Lambda[in]] == 0, Lambda[in], Reals] Reduce[D[A, Lambda[in]] == 0 && 0 < k <= n && a > 0, Lambda[in], Reals] (Note that in the above examples, the values I have used are just there to illustrate what you can do with *Reduce*. I have not tried to solve the equation.) Regards, Jean-Marc
