Elliptic and Jacobi Elliptic Integrals

Description

Complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind, and Jacobi elliptic integrals.

Usage

ellipke(m, tol = .Machine$double.eps)

ellipj(u, m, tol = .Machine$double.eps)

Arguments

u	numeric vector.
m	input vector, all input elements must satisfy 0 <= x <= 1.
tol	tolerance; default is machine precision.

Details

ellipke computes the complete elliptic integrals to accuracy tol, based on the algebraic-geometric mean.

ellipj computes the Jacobi elliptic integrals sn, cn, and dn. For instance, sn is the inverse function for

u = \int_0^\phi dt / \sqrt{1 - m \sin^2 t}

with sn(u) = \sin(\phi).

Some definitions of the elliptic functions use the modules k instead of the parameter m. They are related by k^2=m=sin(a)^2 where a is the ‘modular angle’.

Value

ellipke returns list with two components, k the values for the first kind, e the values for the second kind.

ellipj returns a list with components the three Jacobi elliptic integrals sn, cn, and dn.
