How to calculate the inverse agm(1,x)?












0












$begingroup$


If we define the following function $$agm(1,x) =y$$ and its inverse, $$agm^{-1}(y)=(1,x)$$ is it possible to calculate $agm^-1(y)$. Where $agm(x)$ is the sequence $$a_{n+1}=frac{a_n+b_n}{2}$$ and $$b_{n+1}=sqrt(a_nb_n)$$I know how to reverse the iterations of $agm(x)$ using $$a_{n-1}=a_n-sqrt(a_n^2-b_n^2)$$ and that $$b_{n-1}=a_n+sqrt(a_n^2-b_n^2)$$ However for those to work I would need two values, how can I calculate $x$ or $(1,x)$ using $y$.

    It is not clear to me what you want to do. Do you want to find $agm^{-1}$ or to reverse the agm iteration? Can you give a simple example?

We have
$$text{agm}(1,x)=frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}$$ Suing series expansions for large values of $x$, we have
$$frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}=frac{pi x}{4log (2)+2 log left({x}right)}+frac{1-pi log
left({4 x}right)}{8 x log ^2left({4
x}right)}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^3}right)$$
So, if we consider the first term only and solve for $x$ we have, as an approximation,
$$x=-frac{2,k }{pi },W_{-1}left(-frac{pi }{8,k}right)qquad text{where} qquad k=text{agm}(1,x)tag 1$$ where appears the second branch of Lambert function.



To check how good or bad is this approximation, give $x$ a value, compute $text{agm}(1,x)$ and apply $(1)$
$$left(
begin{array}{ccc}
x_{given} & text{agm}(1,x) & x_{calc} \
5 & 2.60401 & 4.94933 \
10 & 4.25041 & 9.97492 \
15 & 5.74991 & 14.9833 \
20 & 7.16581 & 19.9875 \
25 & 8.52468 & 24.9900 \
30 & 9.84096 & 29.9917 \
35 & 11.1236 & 34.9929 \
40 & 12.3787 & 39.9937 \

65 & 18.3605 & 64.9962 \
70 & 19.5129 & 69.9964 \
75 & 20.6539 & 74.9967 \
80 & 21.7844 & 79.9969 \
85 & 22.9053 & 84.9971 \
90 & 24.0173 & 89.9972 \
95 & 25.1209 & 94.9974 \
100 & 26.2167 & 99.9975
end{array}
right)$$



If $x$ is mall, using simple Padé approximants, we have
$$frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}=frac{1+frac{29 }{24}(x-1)+frac{61}{192} (x-1)^2}{1+frac{17
}{24} (x-1)+frac{5}{192} (x-1)^2}$$
leading to
$$x=frac{55-63k-4 sqrt{229 k^2-194 k+109}}{5 k-61}qquad text{where} qquad k=text{agm}(1,x)tag 2$$
$$left(

    You don't have to go through that much trouble. Sorry my comment was not clear. What I meant is if i use your second equation and $k=1.4567910310469068692$ instead of $k=1.45679$ would i get a more precise result.

    Let me clarify : for building the tablle, for a given $x$, $text{agm}(1,x)$ is exactly computed with illimited precision; so when table contains $k=1.45679$ is is the shorcut writing of $k=1.4567910310469068692$

$begingroup$

From standard facts, such as in the Wikipedia article Arithmetic-geometric mean, $, textrm{agm}(1,k) = frac{pi/2}{K(k')},$ where $,k,$ is the modulus, $,k'=sqrt{1-k^2},$ is the complementary modulus, and $,K(k),$ is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind. In order to find $,textrm{agm}^{-1},$ you need to find the inverse of $,K().,$ This involves the Jacobi amplitude function described in the Jacobi elliptic functions article.



As a practical matter, I suggest restricting to $,0<k<1,$ although there is analytic continuation, but you may run into branch cuts or worse.

We have
$$text{agm}(1,x)=frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}$$ Suing series expansions for large values of $x$, we have
$$frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}=frac{pi x}{4log (2)+2 log left({x}right)}+frac{1-pi log
left({4 x}right)}{8 x log ^2left({4
x}right)}+Oleft(frac{1}{x^3}right)$$
So, if we consider the first term only and solve for $x$ we have, as an approximation,
$$x=-frac{2,k }{pi },W_{-1}left(-frac{pi }{8,k}right)qquad text{where} qquad k=text{agm}(1,x)tag 1$$ where appears the second branch of Lambert function.



To check how good or bad is this approximation, give $x$ a value, compute $text{agm}(1,x)$ and apply $(1)$
$$left(
begin{array}{ccc}
x_{given} & text{agm}(1,x) & x_{calc} \
5 & 2.60401 & 4.94933 \
10 & 4.25041 & 9.97492 \
15 & 5.74991 & 14.9833 \
20 & 7.16581 & 19.9875 \
25 & 8.52468 & 24.9900 \
30 & 9.84096 & 29.9917 \

75 & 20.6539 & 74.9967 \
80 & 21.7844 & 79.9969 \
85 & 22.9053 & 84.9971 \

95 & 25.1209 & 94.9974 \
100 & 26.2167 & 99.9975
end{array}
right)$$



If $x$ is mall, using simple Padé approximants, we have
$$frac{pi (1+x)}{4 Kleft(left(frac{1-x}{1+x}right)^2right)}=frac{1+frac{29 }{24}(x-1)+frac{61}{192} (x-1)^2}{1+frac{17
}{24} (x-1)+frac{5}{192} (x-1)^2}$$
leading to
$$x=frac{55-63k-4 sqrt{229 k^2-194 k+109}}{5 k-61}qquad text{where} qquad k=text{agm}(1,x)tag 2$$
$$left(

$begingroup$

From standard facts, such as in the Wikipedia article Arithmetic-geometric mean, $, textrm{agm}(1,k) = frac{pi/2}{K(k')},$ where $,k,$ is the modulus, $,k'=sqrt{1-k^2},$ is the complementary modulus, and $,K(k),$ is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind. In order to find $,textrm{agm}^{-1},$ you need to find the inverse of $,K().,$ This involves the Jacobi amplitude function described in the Jacobi elliptic functions article.



As a practical matter, I suggest restricting to $,0<k<1,$ although there is analytic continuation, but you may run into branch cuts or worse.
