Abstract
Integration formulas are derived for the three canonical Legendre elliptic integrals. These formulas are obtained from the differential equations satified by these elliptic integrals when the independent variable u is the argument of Jacobian elliptic function theory. This allows a limitless number of indefinite integrals with respect to the amplitude to be derived for these three elliptic integrals. Sample results are given, including the integrals derived from powers of the 12 Glaisher elliptic functions. New recurrence relations and integrals are also given for the 12 Glaisher elliptic functions.
