Função gudermanniana

A função gudermanniana, chamada assim em homenagem a Christoph Gudermann (1798 - 1852), relaciona as funções trigonométricas e as funções hiperbólicas.

Definição:

   ${\begin{aligned}{\rm {gd}}(x)&=\int _{0}^{x}{\frac {dp}{\cosh(p)}},\\&=\arcsin \left(\tanh(x)\right)=\arccos \left({\mbox{sech}}(x)\right),\\&=\arctan \left(\sinh(x)\right)={\mbox{arcsec}}\left(\cosh(x)\right),\\&={\mbox{arccot}}\left({\mbox{csch}}(x)\right)={\mbox{arccsc}}\left(\coth(x)\right),\\&=2\arctan \left(\tanh \left({\frac {x}{2}}\right)\right)=2\arctan(e^{x})-{\frac {\pi }{2}}.\end{aligned}}\,\!$

Identidades envolvendo gd(x) :

  ${\begin{aligned}{\color {white}{\dot {\color {black}\sin({\mbox{gd}}(x))}}}&=\tanh(x);\quad \cos({\mbox{gd}}(x))={\mbox{sech}}(x);\\\tan({\mbox{gd}}(x))&=\sinh(x);\quad \;\sec({\mbox{gd}}(x))=\cosh(x);\\\cot({\mbox{gd}}(x))&={\mbox{csch}}(x);\quad \,\csc({\mbox{gd}}(x))=\coth(x);\\{}_{\color {white}.}\tan \left({\frac {{\mbox{gd}}(x)}{2}}\right)&=\tanh \left({\frac {x}{2}}\right).\end{aligned}}\,\!$

A função gudermanniana inversa.

   ${\begin{aligned}{\mbox{arcgd}}(x)&={\rm {gd}}^{-1}(x)=\int _{0}^{x}{\frac {dp}{\cos(p)}},\\&={}{\mbox{arccosh}}(\sec(x))={\mbox{arctanh}}(\sin(x)),\\&={}\ln \left(\sec(x)(1+\sin(x))\right),\\&={}\ln(\tan(x)+\sec(x))=\ln \tan \left({\frac {\pi }{4}}+{\frac {x}{2}}\right),\\&={}{\frac {1}{2}}\ln {\frac {1+\sin(x)}{1-\sin(x)}}.\end{aligned}}\,\!$

A derivada da função gudermanniana e sua inversa são:

   ${\frac {d}{dx}}{\mbox{gd}}(x)={\mbox{sech}}(x);\quad {\frac {d}{dx}}{\mbox{arcgd}}(x)=\sec(x).\,\!$
