Complete Hyper-Elliptic Integrals of the First Kind and the Chebyshev Property

Abstract

This paper is devoted to studying the following complete hyper-elliptic integral of the first kind $$J(h)=\oint\limits_{\Gamma_h}\frac{\alpha_0+\alpha_1x+\alpha_2x^2+\alpha_3x^3}{y}dx,$$ where $\alpha_i\in\mathbb{R}$, $\Gamma_h$ is an oval contained in the level set $\{H(x,y)=h, h\in(-\frac{5}{36},0)\}$ and $H(x,y)=\frac{1}{2}y^2-\frac{1}{4}x^4+\frac{1}{9}x^9$. We show that the 3-dimensional real vector spaces of these integrals are Chebyshev for $\alpha_0=0$ and Chebyshev with accuracy one for $\alpha_i=0\ (i=1,2,3)$.
