Jacobi, n. Math.
(ˈdʒækəbɪ, ‖ jaˈkoːbi)
The name of Karl Gustav Jacob Jacobi (1804–51), German mathematician, used attrib. and in the possessive to designate concepts introduced by him or arising out of his work, as Jacobi('s) equation, identity, (a) the identity [A, [B, C]] + [B, [C, A]] + [C, [A, B]] = 0 , where A, B, and C are any linear operators and square brackets denote the taking of the commutator of two operators; (b) any of various other identities that may be expressed in a typographically similar way; Jacobi('s) polynomial (formerly Jacobi's function), any of a set of polynomials normally written Jn(p, q; x) and equivalent to F(-n, p+n; q; x) , where n is a positive integer and F is the hypergeometric function.
