First printing of Jacobi's paper (Sur l'elimination ...) in which "he showed how to reduce a general three-body problem - that of the motion of two planets about the Sun - to a problem of the motion of two fictive bodies. He subjected the masses, positions and velocities of these fictive bodies to the restrictions that their centre of gravity should be identical to that of the original system, and their accelerations derivable from the force function for that system; the total force vive was the same, and the conservation of areas still held."

(Berlin, G. Reimer, 1829). 4to. No wrappers. Extracted from"Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik. Hrsg. von A.L. Crelle", Bd. 4. Jacobi's paper: pp. 371-390. First printing of a key memoir in the establishment of "Elliptic Functions". The acknowledged founders of the theory of "Elliptic Functions" are Abel and Jacobi. Both had arrived at the key idea of working with inverse functions of the elliptic integrals, an idea Abel had since 1823. Jacoby next gave proof of the results he had published in 1827 ( a paper published in "Astronomische Nachrichten" in several articles in Crelle's Journal for the years 1828-30, -the offered paper is one of these."The most celebrated results of his research were those in elliptic functions, published in 1829, which brought him the praise of Legendre."(Boyer). The offred paper was incorporated in Jcobi's main work "Fundamenta nova theoriae functionum ellipticarum", published 1829.

Euler shows that any discrete system obeys the Maupertois principle; from this result, he derives the general equation for the balance of moments in a plane elastica, which includes the general catenary as a special case. He also proves that Daniel Bernoulli's principle for the elastica that is free of distributed loads is also a special case of this general equation. - Enestrom No. 145.
