Algebraic dependence of the elliptic functions

Let $\{f_i\}_{i=1}^{n}$ be $n$ elliptic functions in $\mathbb{C}$. We say that $f_1, \dots, f_n$ are algebraic dependent over $\mathbb{C}$ if there exists a polynomial of $n$ variables with constant ...

Elliptic integral as quantity associated with Riemann surface?

There are many elliptic integrals, so to show my point let me just pick one of them (complete elliptic integral of the first kind [1]): $$K(k) = \int_{0}^{1} \frac {dx} {\sqrt{(1-x^{2})(1-k^{2}x^{2})}}...
