These results have prompted other mathematicians to extend Siegel–Weil to other cases. Ralli ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The feminine form of the name was Raoulaina (). Origin The exact origin of the family is unknown.

However, no source mentions a defection to the Byzantines.
