|
[:[@http://mathworld.wolfram.com/EllipticIntegral.html Weisstein, Eric W.
|
|
"Elliptic Integral." From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource.]]
|
|
|
|
As does [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_integral Wikipedia Elliptic integral].
|
|
|
|
[h4 Notation]
|
|
|
|
All variables are real numbers unless otherwise noted.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Definition]
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint1]
|
|
|
|
is called elliptic integral if ['R(t, s)] is a rational function
|
|
of ['t] and ['s], and ['s[super 2]] is a cubic or quartic polynomial
|
|
in ['t].
|
|
|
|
Elliptic integrals generally can not be expressed in terms of
|
|
elementary functions. However, Legendre showed that all elliptic
|
|
integrals can be reduced to the following three canonical forms:
|
|
|
|
Elliptic Integral of the First Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint2]
|
|
|
|
Elliptic Integral of the Second Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint3]
|
|
|
|
Elliptic Integral of the Third Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint4]
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint5]
|
|
|
|
[note ['[phi]] is called the amplitude.
|
|
|
|
['k] is called the modulus.
|
|
|
|
['[alpha]] is called the modular angle.
|
|
|
|
['n] is called the characteristic.]
|
|
|
|
[caution Perhaps more than any other special functions the elliptic
|
|
integrals are expressed in a variety of different ways. In particular,
|
|
the final parameter /k/ (the modulus) may be expressed using a modular
|
|
angle [alpha], or a parameter /m/. These are related by:
|
|
|
|
k = sin[alpha]
|
|
|
|
m = k[super 2] = sin[super 2][alpha]
|
|
|
|
So that the integral of the third kind (for example) may be expressed as
|
|
either:
|
|
|
|
[Pi](n, [phi], k)
|
|
|
|
[Pi](n, [phi] \\ [alpha])
|
|
|
|
[Pi](n, [phi]| m)
|
|
|
|
To further complicate matters, some texts refer to the ['complement
|
|
of the parameter m], or 1 - m, where:
|
|
|
|
1 - m = 1 - k[super 2] = cos[super 2][alpha]
|
|
|
|
This implementation uses /k/ throughout: this matches the requirements
|
|
of the [@http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2005/n1836.pdf
|
|
Technical Report on C++ Library Extensions]. However, you should
|
|
be extra careful when using these functions!]
|
|
|
|
When ['[phi]] = ['[pi]] / 2, the elliptic integrals are called ['complete].
|
|
|
|
Complete Elliptic Integral of the First Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint6]
|
|
|
|
Complete Elliptic Integral of the Second Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint7]
|
|
|
|
Complete Elliptic Integral of the Third Kind (Legendre form)
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint8]
|
|
|
|
Legendre also defined a forth integral D([phi],k) which is a combination of the other three:
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint_d]
|
|
|
|
Like the other Legendre integrals this comes in both complete and incomplete forms.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Carlson Elliptic Integrals]
|
|
|
|
Carlson [[link ellint_ref_carlson77 Carlson77]] [[link ellint_ref_carlson78 Carlson78]] gives an alternative definition of
|
|
elliptic integral's canonical forms:
|
|
|
|
Carlson's Elliptic Integral of the First Kind
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint9]
|
|
|
|
where ['x], ['y], ['z] are nonnegative and at most one of them
|
|
may be zero.
|
|
|
|
Carlson's Elliptic Integral of the Second Kind
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint10]
|
|
|
|
where ['x], ['y] are nonnegative, at most one of them may be zero,
|
|
and ['z] must be positive.
|
|
|
|
Carlson's Elliptic Integral of the Third Kind
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint11]
|
|
|
|
where ['x], ['y], ['z] are nonnegative, at most one of them may be
|
|
zero, and ['p] must be nonzero.
|
|
|
|
Carlson's Degenerate Elliptic Integral
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint12]
|
|
|
|
where ['x] is nonnegative and ['y] is nonzero.
|
|
|
|
[note ['R[sub C](x, y) = R[sub F](x, y, y)]
|
|
|
|
['R[sub D](x, y, z) = R[sub J](x, y, z, z)]]
|
|
|
|
Carlson's Symmetric Integral
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint27]
|
|
|
|
[h4 Duplication Theorem]
|
|
|
|
Carlson proved in [[link ellint_ref_carlson78 Carlson78]] that
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint13]
|
|
|
|
[h4 Carlson's Formulas]
|
|
|
|
The Legendre form and Carlson form of elliptic integrals are related
|
|
by equations:
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint14]
|
|
|
|
In particular,
|
|
|
|
[equation ellint15]
|
|
|
|
[h4 Miscellaneous Elliptic Integrals]
|
|
|
|
There are two functions related to the elliptic integrals which otherwise
|
|
defy categorisation, these are the Jacobi Zeta function:
|
|
|
|
[equation jacobi_zeta]
|
|
|
|
and the Heuman Lambda function:
|
|
|
|
[equation heuman_lambda]
|
|
|
|
Both of these functions are easily implemented in terms of Carlson's integrals, and are
|
|
provided in this library as __jacobi_zeta and __heuman_lambda.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Numerical Algorithms]
|
|
|
|
The conventional methods for computing elliptic integrals are Gauss
|
|
and Landen transformations, which converge quadratically and work
|
|
well for elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds.
|
|
Unfortunately they suffer from loss of significant digits for the
|
|
third kind. Carlson's algorithm [[link ellint_ref_carlson79 Carlson79]] [[link ellint_ref_carlson78 Carlson78]], by contrast,
|
|
provides a unified method for all three kinds of elliptic integrals
|
|
with satisfactory precisions.
