In mathematics, the Neville theta functions, named after Eric Harold Neville[citation needed], are defined as follows:[1] [2]


where:

  • is the elliptic nome

Examples

Substitute z = 2.5, m = 0.3 into the above definitions of Neville theta functions(using Maple) once obtain the following(consistent with results from wolfram math).

  • [3]

Symmetry

Complex 3D plots

Implementation

NetvilleThetaC[z,m], NevilleThetaD[z,m], NevilleThetaN[z,m], and NevilleThetaS[z,m] are built-in functions of Mathematica[4] No such functions in Maple.
