Expression As A Ratio of Polynomials
For even orders, the elliptic rational functions may be expressed as a ratio of two polynomials, both of order n.
- (for n even)
where are the zeroes and are the poles, and is a normalizing constant chosen such that . The above form would be true for odd orders as well except that for odd orders, there will be a pole at x=∞ and a zero at x=0 so that the above form must be modified to read:
- (for n odd)

Famous quotes containing the words expression and/or ratio:
“Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“A magazine or a newspaper is a shop. Each is an experiment and represents a new focus, a new ratio between commerce and intellect.”
