Equianharmonic
In mathematics, and in particular the study of Weierstrass elliptic functions, the equianharmonic case occurs when the Weierstrass invariants satisfy ''g''2 = 0 and ''g''3 = 1. This page follows the terminology of Abramowitz and Stegun; see also the lemniscatic case. (These are special examples of complex multiplication.) In the equianharmonic case, the minimal half period ω2 is real and equal to :\frac where \Gamma is the Gamma function. The half period is :\omega_1=\tfrac(-1+\sqrt3i)\omega_2. Here the period lattice is a real multiple of the Eisenstein integer In mathematics, the Eisenstein integers (named after Gotthold Eisenstein), occasionally also known as Eulerian integers (after Leonhard Euler), are the complex numbers of the form : z = a + b\omega , where and are integers and : \omega = \frac ...s. The constants ''e''1, ''e''2 and ''e''3 are given by : e_1=4^e^,\qquad e_2=4^,\qquad e_3=4^e^{-(2/3)\pi i}. The case ''g''2 = 0, ''g ...

Eisenstein Integer
In mathematics, the Eisenstein integers (named after Gotthold Eisenstein), occasionally also known as Eulerian integers (after Leonhard Euler), are the complex numbers of the form : z = a + b\omega , where and are integers and : \omega = \frac = e^ is a Root of unity#General definition, primitive (hence non-real) cube root of unity. The Eisenstein integers form a triangular lattice in the complex plane, in contrast with the Gaussian integers, which form a square lattice in the complex plane. The Eisenstein integers are a Countable set, countably infinite set. Properties The Eisenstein integers form a commutative ring of algebraic integers in the algebraic number field – the third cyclotomic field. To see that the Eisenstein integers are algebraic integers note that each is a root of the monic polynomial : z^2 - (2a - b)\;\!z + \left(a^2 - ab + b^2\right)~. In particular, satisfies the equation : \omega^2 + \omega + 1 = 0~. The product of two Eisenstein integers and i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Weierstrass Elliptic Function
In mathematics, the Weierstrass elliptic functions are elliptic functions that take a particularly simple form. They are named for Karl Weierstrass. This class of functions is also referred to as ℘-functions and they are usually denoted by the symbol ℘, a uniquely fancy Cursive, script ''p''. They play an important role in the theory of elliptic functions, i.e., meromorphic functions that are Doubly_periodic_function, doubly periodic. A ℘-function together with its derivative can be used to parameterize elliptic curves and they generate the field of elliptic functions with respect to a given period lattice. Symbol for Weierstrass \wp-function Motivation A Cubic_form, cubic of the form C_^\mathbb=\ , where g_2,g_3\in\mathbb are complex numbers with g_2^3-27g_3^2\neq0, cannot be Rational_variety, rationally parameterized. Yet one still wants to find a way to parameterize it. For the quadric K=\left\; the unit circle, there exists a (non-rational) parameterizatio ...

Abramowitz And Stegun
''Abramowitz and Stegun'' (''AS'') is the informal name of a 1964 mathematical reference work edited by Milton Abramowitz and Irene Stegun of the United States National Bureau of Standards (NBS), now the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Its full title is ''Handbook of Mathematical Functions with Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables''. A digital successor to the Handbook was released as the " Digital Library of Mathematical Functions" (DLMF) on 11 May 2010, along with a printed version, the '' NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions'', published by Cambridge University Press. Overview Since it was first published in 1964, the 1046-page ''Handbook'' has been one of the most comprehensive sources of information on special functions, containing definitions, identities, approximations, plots, and tables of values of numerous functions used in virtually all fields of applied mathematics. The notation used in the ''Handbook'' is the '' de facto'' standard ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lemniscatic Elliptic Function
In mathematics, the lemniscate elliptic functions are elliptic functions related to the arc length of the lemniscate of Bernoulli. They were first studied by Giulio Fagnano in 1718 and later by Leonhard Euler and Carl Friedrich Gauss, among others. The lemniscate sine and lemniscate cosine functions, usually written with the symbols and (sometimes the symbols and or and are used instead), are analogous to the trigonometric functions sine and cosine. While the trigonometric sine relates the arc length to the chord length in a unit-diameter circle x^2+y^2 = x, the lemniscate sine relates the arc length to the chord length of a lemniscate \bigl(x^2+y^2\bigr)^2=x^2-y^2. The lemniscate functions have periods related to a number called the lemniscate constant, the ratio of a lemniscate's perimeter to its diameter. This number is a quartic analog of the ( quadratic) , ratio of perimeter to diameter of a circle. As complex functions, and have a square period lattice (a m ...

Complex Multiplication
In mathematics, complex multiplication (CM) is the theory of elliptic curves ''E'' that have an endomorphism ring larger than the integers. Put another way, it contains the theory of elliptic functions with extra symmetries, such as are visible when the period lattice is the Gaussian integer Lattice (group), lattice or Eisenstein integer lattice. It has an aspect belonging to the theory of special functions, because such elliptic functions, or abelian functions of several complex variables, are then 'very special' functions satisfying extra identities and taking explicitly calculable special values at particular points. It has also turned out to be a central theme in algebraic number theory, allowing some features of the theory of cyclotomic fields to be carried over to wider areas of application. David Hilbert is said to have remarked that the theory of complex multiplication of elliptic curves was not only the most beautiful part of mathematics but of all science. There is also ...

Gamma Function
In mathematics, the gamma function (represented by Γ, capital Greek alphabet, Greek letter gamma) is the most common extension of the factorial function to complex numbers. Derived by Daniel Bernoulli, the gamma function \Gamma(z) is defined for all complex numbers z except non-positive integers, and for every positive integer z=n, \Gamma(n) = (n-1)!\,.The gamma function can be defined via a convergent improper integral for complex numbers with positive real part: \Gamma(z) = \int_0^\infty t^ e^\textt, \ \qquad \Re(z) > 0\,.The gamma function then is defined in the complex plane as the analytic continuation of this integral function: it is a meromorphic function which is holomorphic function, holomorphic except at zero and the negative integers, where it has simple Zeros and poles, poles. The gamma function has no zeros, so the reciprocal gamma function is an entire function. In fact, the gamma function corresponds to the Mellin transform of the negative exponential functi ...

Period Lattice
In mathematics, a fundamental pair of periods is an ordered pair of complex numbers that defines a lattice in the complex plane. This type of lattice is the underlying object with which elliptic functions and modular forms are defined. Definition A fundamental pair of periods is a pair of complex numbers \omega_1,\omega_2 \in \Complex such that their ratio \omega_2 / \omega_1 is not real. If considered as vectors in \R^2, the two are linearly independent. The lattice generated by \omega_1 and \omega_2 is :\Lambda = \left\. This lattice is also sometimes denoted as \Lambda(\omega_1, \omega_2) to make clear that it depends on \omega_1 and \omega_2. It is also sometimes denoted by \Omega\vphantom or \Omega(\omega_1, \omega_2), or simply by (\omega_1, \omega_2). The two generators \omega_1 and \omega_2 are called the ''lattice basis''. The parallelogram with vertices (0, \omega_1, \omega_1+\omega_2, \omega_2) is called the ''fundamental parallelogram''. While a fundamental pair gen ...

Mathematical Constant
A mathematical constant is a number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a special symbol (e.g., an Letter (alphabet), alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. Constants arise in many areas of mathematics, with constants such as and pi, occurring in such diverse contexts as geometry, number theory, statistics, and calculus. Some constants arise naturally by a fundamental principle or intrinsic property, such as the ratio between the circumference and diameter of a circle (). Other constants are notable more for historical reasons than for their mathematical properties. The more popular constants have been studied throughout the ages and computed to many decimal places. All named mathematical constants are Definable real number, definable numbers, and usually are also computable numbers (Chaitin's constant being a significant exception). Basic mathematical constants These a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Modular Forms
In mathematics, a modular form is a holomorphic function on the Upper half-plane#Complex plane, complex upper half-plane, \mathcal, that roughly satisfies a functional equation with respect to the Group action (mathematics), group action of the modular group and a growth condition. The theory of modular forms has origins in complex analysis, with important connections with number theory. Modular forms also appear in other areas, such as algebraic topology, sphere packing, and string theory. Modular form theory is a special case of the more general theory of automorphic forms, which are functions defined on Lie groups that transform nicely with respect to the action of certain discrete subgroups, generalizing the example of the modular group \mathrm_2(\mathbb Z) \subset \mathrm_2(\mathbb R). Every modular form is attached to a Galois representation. The term "modular form", as a systematic description, is usually attributed to Erich Hecke. The importance of modular forms across m ...

Elliptic Curves
In mathematics, an elliptic curve is a Smoothness, smooth, Projective variety, projective, algebraic curve of Genus of an algebraic curve, genus one, on which there is a specified point . An elliptic curve is defined over a field (mathematics), field and describes points in , the Cartesian product of with itself. If the field's characteristic (algebra), characteristic is different from 2 and 3, then the curve can be described as a plane algebraic curve which consists of solutions for: :y^2 = x^3 + ax + b for some coefficients and in . The curve is required to be Singular point of a curve, non-singular, which means that the curve has no cusp (singularity), cusps or Self-intersection, self-intersections. (This is equivalent to the condition , that is, being square-free polynomial, square-free in .) It is always understood that the curve is really sitting in the projective plane, with the point being the unique point at infinity. Many sources define an elliptic curve to be ...
