課程概述

課程 "古典橢圓函數論", 第二學期延續上學期的基礎; 其中
theta 函數將是重點之一. 由於此函數的發展極依賴先前的工作,
因此欲修此課者, 請先將上學期 Jacobi 橢圓函數的
基本定義, 主要性質以及微分方程 ( in Gauss' approach)
做好復習 (例如 期末考試的所有問題), 以便於這學期的銜接.

關於本課程的整體構想及參考書, 請參閱上學期已給的大綱.
以下僅就這學期課程的內容與大致進度, 條列如下 (每條目大約相應於一個星期的份量).

Chapter 1

1. Introduction to theta functions (I)
2. Introduction to theta functions (II)
3. Introduction to theta functions (III)

Chapter 2

4. Jacobi's imaginary transformation and modular transformations (I)
5. Jacobi's imaginary transformation and modular transformations (II)


Chapter 3

6. Complex modulus and group property (I)
7. Complex modulus and group property (II)

Chapter 4

8. theta functions and zeta functions
9. Jacobi's triple identity and Euler's formula

Chapter 5

10. Elliptic intergrals of the second kind (EISK)
11. theta functions in terms of EISK
12. Addition formula for EISK, Euler's discovery and Legendre's relation

Chapter 6

Topics selected from: 1) transformation theory 2) Abel's theorem (a
constructive,
original approach due to Abel's own work) 3) Jacobi's inversion problem (a
classical
approach to the problem with historical remarks). It does not
seem possible to cover
all the topics; it depends on the available time for us to proceed any
futher.
