In this paper, we first discuss the linear independence of the complete elliptic integrals of the first, second and third kinds $K(k)$, $E(k)$ and $\Pi(\mu(k),k)$, and then obtain an upper bound for the number of zeros of a function of the…
For $r\in(0,1)$, the function $\K(r)=\int_0^{\pi/2}(1-r^2\sin^2t)^{-1/2}dt$ is known as the complete elliptic integral of the first kind. In this paper, we prove the absolute monotonicity of two functions involving $\K(r)$. As a…
We deduce explicit formulae for the intrinsic volumes of an ellipsoid in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 2$, in terms of elliptic integrals. Namely, for an ellipsoid ${\mathcal E}\subset \mathbb R^d$ with semiaxes $a_1,\ldots, a_d$ we show that…

The $k$-ellipse is the plane algebraic curve consisting of all points whose sum of distances from $k$ given points is a fixed number. The polynomial equation defining the $k$-ellipse has degree $2^k$ if $k$ is odd and degree…
Successive quadratic approximations, or second-order proximal methods, are useful for minimizing functions that are a sum of a smooth part and a convex, possibly nonsmooth part that promotes regularization. Most analyses of iteration…
