AsJacobi was the first to announce this integral (Comptes rendus de l'aeadémie des sciences de Paris, Tome III, p. 59), we shall take the liberty of calling it the Jacobian integral.
These expressions are established in another memoir. See American Journal of Mathematics, Vol. I, p. 138.
A similar condition of things occurs in many less complex problems for instance, in the determination of the principal axes of rotation of a rigid body. Although there is but one set of such axes, yet the final equation, solving the question, is of the third degree, all because analysis knows no distinction between the axes ofx, y andz.
