Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Lectures on the Theory of Elliptic Functions V1: Analysis (1910) is a book written by Hancock and Harris. This book is a comprehensive guide to the theory of elliptic functions, which are complex functions that are periodic in two directions. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on the analysis of elliptic functions.The book starts with an introduction to the basics of complex analysis, including complex numbers, functions, and integrals. The authors then introduce the concept of elliptic functions and their properties, including their periodicity, singularities, and zeros. They also discuss the Weierstrass function and its properties.The book then goes on to cover the theory of modular functions, which are functions that are invariant under certain transformations. The authors discuss the modular group, modular forms, and the Riemann hypothesis. They also cover the theory of theta functions and their applications in number theory and physics.Throughout the book, the authors provide detailed proofs of the theorems and concepts they introduce. They also include numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand the material.Overall, Lectures on the Theory of Elliptic Functions V1: Analysis (1910) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the theory of elliptic functions, modular functions, and theta functions. It is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both beginners and experts in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

Reseña del editor

Prized for its extensive coverage of classical material, this text is also well regarded for its unusual fullness of treatment and its comprehensive discussion of both theory and applications. The author developes the theory of elliptic integrals, beginning with formulas establishing the existence, formation, and treatment of all three types, and concluding with the most general description of these integrals in terms of the Riemann surface. The theories of Legendre, Abel, Jacobi, and Weierstrass are developed individually and correlated with the universal laws of Riemann. The important contributory theorems of Hermite and Liouville are also fully developed. 1910 ed.
