jacobiDN

Jacobi DN elliptic function

Description

example

jacobiDN(u,m) returns the Jacobi DN Elliptic Function of u and m. If u or m is an array, then jacobiDN acts element-wise.

Examples

jacobiDN(2,1)
ans =
    0.2658

Call jacobiDN on array inputs. jacobiDN acts element-wise when u or m is an array.

jacobiDN([2 1 -3],[1 2 3])
ans =
    0.2658    0.3107   -0.0046

Convert numeric input to symbolic form using sym, and find the Jacobi DN elliptic function. For symbolic input where u = 0 or m = 0 or 1, jacobiDN returns exact symbolic output.

jacobiDN(sym(2),sym(1))
ans =
1/cosh(2)

Show that for other values of u or m, jacobiDN returns an unevaluated function call.

jacobiDN(sym(2),sym(3))
ans =
jacobiDN(2, 3)

For symbolic variables or expressions, jacobiDN returns the unevaluated function call.

syms x y
f = jacobiDN(x,y)
f =
jacobiDN(x, y)

Substitute values for the variables by using subs, and convert values to double by using double.

f = subs(f, [x y], [3 5])
f =
jacobiDN(3, 5)
fVal = double(f)
fVal =
    0.9976

Calculate f to higher precision using vpa.

fVal = vpa(f)
fVal =
0.99757205953668099307853539907267

Plot the Jacobi DN elliptic function using fcontour. Set u on the x-axis and m on the y-axis by using the symbolic function f with the variable order (u,m). Fill plot contours by setting Fill to on.

syms f(u,m)
f(u,m) = jacobiDN(u,m);
fcontour(f,'Fill','on')

Jacobi DN Elliptic Function

The Jacobi DN elliptic function is

dn(u,m)=1msin(ϕ)2

where ϕ is such that F(ϕ,m) = u and F represents the incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind. F is implemented as ellipticF.

The Jacobi elliptic functions are meromorphic and doubly periodic in their first argument with periods 4K(m) and 4iK'(m), where K is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind, implemented as ellipticK.
