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})}}...

To integrate elliptic integral, we glue two Riemann surface to make torus

To deal with elliptic integral, we often cut riemann surface and glue them together, and gain a torus. We do this in order to avoid indeterminacy of integral, in other word, to avoid the condition ...

Differentials on tori realised as double of annuli

In this question it was described how to realise a torus as the double of an annulus Explicit construction of mirror surface and complex double for an annulus. In short, the torus is realised ...
