About Elliptic Integrals of the Third Kind

Definitions

The incomplete elliptic integral of the third kind is defined as:

\Pi(\varphi,k,n) = \int_{0}^{\varphi}\frac{d\theta}{\left(1-n\sin^2\theta \right)\sqrt{1-k^2\sin^2\theta}}

where k is the elliptic modulus, with -1 \le k \le 1 , and n is a parameter called elliptic characteristic, that can take any real value. Variable \varphi is the Jacobi's amplitude.

For n=0, the elliptic integral of the third kind is identical to the respective integral of the first kind:

\Pi(\varphi,k,0) = \textrm{F}(\varphi,k)

The complete elliptic integral of the third kind is defined as:

\begin{split} \Pi(k,n) & = \Pi(\frac{\pi}{2},k,n) \\ & = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{d\theta}{\left(1-n\sin^2\theta \right)\sqrt{1-k^2\sin^2\theta}} \end{split}

For n=1, the complete elliptic integral of the third kind becomes infinite for any k:

\Pi(k,1) = \infty

Values

In the following table the values of the complete elliptic integral of the third kind are shown for a range of k and n values:

The curve for n=1 is not drawn because, the integral becomes infinite. Also, for n>1 it is \Pi(0,n)=0 .

In the following table the values of the incomplete elliptic integral of the third kind are shown for n=0 and a range of k and φ values. These values are identical to the respective ones of the incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind because \Pi(\varphi,k,0) = \textrm{F}(\varphi,k) .
