          Jacobi's first notable work, "New Foundations of the Theory of Elliptic Functions" (Fundamenta nova theoriae functionum ellipticarum), was published in 1829, in the same year Abel passed away.

          Jacobi's research in this area was driven by a captivating competition with Abel. He developed the theory of elliptic functions based on four theta functions, defined by infinite series. In 1832, while solving the problem of inverting hyperelliptic integrals,
