In mathematics, Fundamenta nova theoriae functionum ellipticarum (new foundations of the theory of elliptic functions) is a book on Jacobi elliptic functions by Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi (given in Latin style as Carolo Gustavo Iacobo Iacobi in the book). The book was first published in 1829, and has been reprinted in volume 1 of his collected works and on several later occasions. The book introduces Jacobi elliptic functions and the Jacobi triple product identity.
