First appearance of Jacobi's very first paper on class number formula. The search for a class number formula probably began with Gauss, but the first formula in print was proposed by Jacobi (1832). He conjectured it on the evidence of some results of Cauchy in the theory of circle division, and his own brilliant extrapolation (or einduction"" as they called it then) from numerical results. Jacobi's formula was correct, but by no means proved by him. In a memorial speech for Jacobi, Dirichlet later said ""I believe it should be mentioned, regarding the previously unknown origin of this result, that Jacobi's communication is a noteworthyexample of shrewd induction, even though it is not possible to base a rigorous proof on circle division" it appears necessary to use essentially different principles, involving integral calculus and the theory of series, which were only later introduced into the subject. (Dirichlet, 1852).

First printing of Jacobi's accouncement of the Rodrigues's formula (formerly called the Ivory-Jacobi formula). Rodrigues's formula is a formula for Legendre polynomials independently introduced by Olinde Rodrigues in 1816 and Sir James Ivory in 1824 and Carl Gustav Jacobi in 1827 [The present]. The name ""Rodrigues formula"" was introduced by Heine in 1878, after Hermite pointed out in 1865 that Rodrigues was the first to discover it, and is also used for generalizations to other orthogonal polynomials.

First printing of Jacobi's paper (published posthumously) in which Jacobi polynomials was first introduced.

First printing of this important paper, bringing the problem with the Abelian integral to a solution. ""The further step was made by Jacobi in the short but very importent memoir ""Considerationes generales..."" (the paper offered): viz. he here shows for the hyper-elliptical integrals of any class (but the conclusion may be stated generally) that the direct functions to which Abel's theorem has reference are not functions of a single variable, such as the elliptic sn, cn, or dn, but functions of ""p"" variables...(Arthur Cayley in his ""Presidential Address to the British Association 1883).""Carl Jacobi in reviewing Adrien Legendre's third supplement to his ""Traite des fonctions elliptiques et des integrales Euleurienne"", suggests renaming Legendre's ""hyperelliptical transcendental functions"" as ""Abelian transcendental functions"" after Niels Henrik Abel. acobi, whiose work on hyperelliptic integrals helps lead to the extensive nineteenth-century development of the theory of abelian functions of n variables, suggests, in partial analogy to doubly periodic functions, that hyperelliptic integrals can be inverted to hyperelliptic functions through a generalization of elliptic theta functions.""

First printing of main paper in Rigic Body Dynamics, where Jacobi studied the motion of a top and derived the analytic solution for the motion of a free body and defined the so-called ""Jacobi analytic functions"". The problem was first treated by Leonhard Euler in 1758 in the case where the fixed point is the centre of gravity of the top, but it was Jacobi who first solved the problem completely, making use of elliptic functions which he himself had introduced.

First appearance of an importent paper on the functions of a complex variable.In an importent paper of 1835 (the item offered) Jacobi showed that a single-valued function of a single variable which for every finite value of the argument has the character of a rational function (that is, is a meromorphic function) cannot have more than two periods, the ratio of the periodics is necessarily a nonreal number. This discovery opened up a new direction of work, namely, the problem of finding all double periodic functions."" (Morris Kline).
