and we thus of course identify the functions Au, Bu, Cu, Du with the H and the ©
functions of Jacobi.
20. If in the above-mentioned four equations we write first u = 0, and then u' = 0,
and by means of the results eliminate from the original equations the quantities
X, Y, X', Y' which occur therein, we obtain expressions for the four products such
as A (u + u) A (u — u'). One of these equations is
C-0 .C(u + u) C (u - u') = Chi Chi' - D-uD-u.
Taking herein u' indefinitely small, we obtain

log Cu, or this second derived function of the

theta-function Cu is given in terms of the quotient-function : hence, integrating
twice and taking the exponential of each side, we obtain Cu as an exponential the

function. This, in fact, corresponds to Jacobi’s equation

three other equations of the system, we introduce into the integral the variable x

that of an expression such as
