Jacobi theta functions (notational variations)

There are a number of notational systems for the Jacobi theta functions. The notations given in the Wikipedia article define the original function which is equivalent to where and . However, a similar notation is defined somewhat differently in Whittaker and Watson, p. 487: This notation is attributed to "Hermite, H.J.S. Smith and some other mathematicians". They also define This is a factor of i off from the definition of as defined in the Wikipedia article. These definitions can be made at least proportional by x = za, but other definitions cannot. Whittaker and Watson, Abramowitz and Stegun, and Gradshteyn and Ryzhik all follow Tannery and Molk, in which Note that there is no factor of π in the argument as in the previous definitions. Whittaker and Watson refer to still other definitions of . The warning in Abramowitz and Stegun, "There is a bewildering variety of notations...in consulting books caution should be exercised," may be viewed as an understatement. In any expression, an occurrence of should not be assumed to have any particular definition. It is incumbent upon the author to state what definition of is intended. (Wikipedia).

Theory of numbers: Jacobi symbol

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We define the Jacobi symbol as an extension of the Legendre symbol, and show how to use it to calculate the Legendre symbol fast. We also briefly mention the Kronecker symbol. For the other lectures in t

Dirichlet Eta Function - Integral Representation

Today, we use an integral to derive one of the integral representations for the Dirichlet eta function. This representation is very similar to the Riemann zeta function, which explains why their respective infinite series definition is quite similar (with the eta function being an alte rna
