The two-variable Jacobi theta function #
This file defines the two-variable Jacobi theta function
$$\theta(z, \tau) = \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \exp (2 i \pi n z + i \pi n ^ 2 \tau),$$
and proves the functional equation relating the values at (z, τ) and (z / τ, -1 / τ),
using Poisson's summation formula. We also show holomorphy (in both variables individually,
not jointly).
The two-variable Jacobi theta function,
θ z τ = ∑' (n : ℤ), cexp (2 * π * I * n * z + π * I * n ^ 2 * τ).
The sum is only convergent for 0 < im τ; we are implictly extending it by 0 for other values of
τ.

Differentiability of Θ z τ in τ, for fixed z. (This is weaker than differentiability
in both variables simultaneously, but we do not have a version of
differentiableOn_tsum_of_summable_norm in multiple variables yet.)
The two-variable Jacobi theta function is periodic in τ with period 2.
The two-variable Jacobi theta function is periodic in z with period 1.
The two-variable Jacobi theta function is quasi-periodic in z with period τ.
The two-variable Jacobi theta function is even in z.
The functional equation for the Jacobi theta function: jacobiTheta₂ x τ is an explict factor
times jacobiTheta₂ (x / τ) (-1 / τ). This is the key lemma behind the proof of the functional
equation for Dirichlet L-series.
