| | A summary of the definitions and properties of the Jacobian elliptic functions |
 | | The 12 Jacobian elliptic functions are denoted by two letters taken from the quartet s, c, d, n and may be classified into four groups, each with three members, according to the second letter of the function's name. |
 | | The most popular Jacobian elliptic functions is a copolar trio of sine amplitude elliptic function - sn(x,k), cosine amplitude elliptic function - cn(x,k), and delta amplitude elliptic function - dn(x,k). |
 | | It is also worth noting that all Jacobian elliptic functions reduce to a trigonometric function, or to unity, when k=0. |
