  PlanetMath: elliptic integrals and Jacobi elliptic functions
The first three functions are known as Legendre's form of the incomplete elliptic integrals of the first, second, and third kinds respectively.
When the Jacobian elliptic functions are extended to complex arguments, they are doubly periodic and have two poles in any parallelogram of periods; both poles are simple.
This is version 3 of elliptic integrals and Jacobi elliptic functions, born on 2003-09-30, modified 2005-02-08.

 Jacobian Elliptic Functions
Elliptic functions have provided a lot of entertainment for mathematicians, however, and are as fascinating as any useless knowledge can be.
Elliptic integrals came first, invented by the Bernoullis, and were studied by Maclaurin, Euler and Lagrange in the 18th century, and later by Legendre, when there was great interest in evaluating the integrals that appeared in scientific applications, after it was realized that most integrals could not be evaluated in terms of the elementary functions.
The invention of elliptic functions is shared with C. Jacobi and Abel, who published their investigations around 1827, though Gauss knew many of the results as early as 1809.

 i/elliptic
The yorick elliptic functions in terms of M may need to be written ell_am(u,k^2) or ell_am(u,sin(alpha)^2) in order to agree with the definitions in other references.
The exceptions are the complete elliptic integrals ellip_k and ellip_e which accept an array of M values.
Note that the function ellip_k is infinite for M=1 and for large negative M. The "natural" range for M is 0<=M<=1; all other real values can be "reduced" to this range by various transformations; the logarithmic singularity of ellip_k is actually very mild, and other functions such as ell_am are perfectly well-defined there.

 Elliptic functions
The theory of elliptic functions is one of the highlights of 19th century complex analysis, connected to names such as Gauss, Abel, Jacobi, and Weierstrass.
This is the height of the rectangles in the plot, and the up-down period of the sn function is consequently 2iK′(k).
The inverse of this function, the sinus lemniscaticus denoted w = sinlemn(z) or w = sl(z), is the original elliptic function; Gauss discovered around 1797 that it is doubly periodic as a function of a complex variable.

 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).
The second argument of the functions k - is a modulus of the elliptic function and

 About Jacobi
Karl Gustav Jacob Jacobi was born on the 10th of December 1804 in Potsdam, and died on the 18th of February, 1851, in Berlin.
His results in elliptic functions were published in Fundamenta Nova Theoriae Functionum Ellipticarum (1829; "New Foundations of the Theory of Elliptic Functions").
In 1832 he demonstrated that just as elliptic functions can be obtained by inverting elliptic integrals, hyperelliptic functions can be obtained by inverting hyperelliptic integrals.

 Maxima Manual: 17. Elliptic Functions
In particular, all elliptic functions and integrals use the parameter m instead of the modulus k or the modular angle \alpha.
This is one area where we differ from Abramowitz and Stegun who use the modular angle for the elliptic functions.
The elliptic functions and integrals are primarily intended to support symbolic computation.

 Toward Symbolic Integration of Elliptic Integrals
A method is proposed by which elliptic integrals can be integrated symbolically without the kind of information about limits of integration and branch points of the integrand that is required in integral tables using Legendre's integrals.
However, it is assumed that when all polynomials in the integrand have been factored symbolically into linear factors, the exponents of all distinct linear factors are known.
Elliptic integrals are usually defined to be integrals of the form

 Talk Abstracts: IMA 2002 Summer Program: Special Functions in the Digital Age, July 22 - August 2, 2002
In order to analyze the wave functions of electrons in molecules with a crystal structure it is necessary to use the structure of spherical harmonics invariant under the symmetry point group of the crystal.
In particular, those special functions that arise as explicit solutions of the partial differential equations of mathematical physics, such as via separation of variables, can be characterized in terms of their transformation properties under the Lie symmetry groups and algebras of the differential equations.
Khare and Sukhatme have recently introduced scores of identities for sums of Jacobi functions with arguments, z, augmneted by addition of 2(i-1)K/p, K being the "quarter period" which is a complete elliptic integral of the first kind, and i =3D 1,2,3,...p.

 The Miracle of Theta Functions
Modular functions are functions which are meromorphic in H, the upper half of the complex plane, and which are invariant under a group of linear fractional transformations, G, in the sense that
Thus the behaviour of a modular function is uniquely determined by its behaviour on a fundamental region.
Modular functions are, in a sense, an extension of elliptic (or doubly periodic) functions --- functions such as sn which are invariant under linear transformations and which arise naturally in the inversion of elliptic integrals.

 MUG: JacobiSN is wrong in Maple 6.0   (15.12.00)
Remember that there are two conventions in the literature for the Jacobian elliptic functions, regarding the use of k versus the use in Abramowitz and Stegun of m=k^2 (this is less useful---see the book by D. Lawden).
The error is in the JacobiAM function (all the other Jacobi functions are simple trig combination of it and therefore the test of Robert Corless: sn^2+dn^2=1 is just a test on the trig functions not on the Jacobi).
We pay a lot of money for upgrades that have nice GUI and other functions but the stability of Maple for the evaluation of elementary and special functions is a cornerstone of its power and use.

A greater variety of functions and higher accuracy of tabulation are now required as a result of scientific advances and, especially, of the increasing use of automatic computers.
The enthusiastic reception accorded the "Handbook of Mathematical Functions" is little short of unprecedented in the long history of mathematical tables that began when John Napier published his tables of logarithms in 1614.
