Can someone guide me to where I can find the work and theorem of De Mourve. The spelling of "De Mourve" may be wrong.

Do you mean De Moivre's Theorem?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Moivre's_formula

It's the mathematical formulation that
[tex]\left(\cos x + i\sin x\right)^{n}=\cos\left(nx)+i\sin\left(nx\right)[/tex]
