TL;DR: This paper describes a single unified algorithm for the calculation of elementary functions including multiplication, division, sin, cos, tan, arctan, sinh, cosh, tanh, arCTanh, In, exp and square-root.
Abstract: This paper describes a single unified algorithm for the calculation of elementary functions including multiplication, division, sin, cos, tan, arctan, sinh, cosh, tanh, arctanh, In, exp and square-root The basis for the algorithm is coordinate rotation in a linear, circular, or hyperbolic coordinate system depending on which function is to be calculated The only operations required are shifting, adding, subtracting and the recall of prestored constants The limited domain of convergence of the algorithm is calculated, leading to a discussion of the modifications required to extend the domain for floating point calculations

TL;DR: The theory of elliptic integrals was introduced by Abel as discussed by the authors, who proposed a special function to evaluate integrals, which is called integral sine, logarithm, exponential function, probability integral and so on.
Abstract: At first only elementary functions were studied in mathematical analysis. Then new functions were introduced to evaluate integrals. They were named special functions: integral sine, logarithms, the exponential function, the probability integral and so on. Elliptic integrals proved to be the most important. They are connected with rectification of arcs of certain curves. The remarkable idea of Abel to replace these integrals by the corresponding inverse functions led to the creation of the theory of elliptic functions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple integral expression for calculating the exact probability of a symbol error for an arbitrary array of signal points is presented by applying it to M-ary phase shift keying (MPSK).
Abstract: The author presents a simple integral expression for calculating the exact probability of a symbol error for an arbitrary array of signal points. The integrand contains only elementary functions and the range of integration is finite. The approach is introduced by applying it to M-ary phase shift keying (MPSK). The special case of M=2 gives novel and possibly useful expressions for calculating the Gaussian tail probability function and the related complementary error function. The approach is outlined for polygonal decision regions, and results are given for 16-point signal constellations. A method of obtaining, not exact, but even simpler and highly accurate expressions for symbol error probability when the latter is less than a few hundredths is presented. >
