EllipticExp

EllipticExp[u,{a,b}]

is the inverse for EllipticLog. It produces a list {x,y} such that u==EllipticLog[{x,y},{a,b}].

Details

  • Mathematical function, suitable for both symbolic and numerical manipulation.
  • EllipticExp gives the generalized exponential associated with the elliptic curve .
  • For certain special arguments, EllipticExp automatically evaluates to exact values.
  • EllipticExp can be evaluated to arbitrary numerical precision.
