Abstract: We evaluate 35 different theta derivatives with rational characteristics using the method of Matsuda, in which the logarithmic derivatives at $z=0$ of the triple product expansions of the associated theta functions become linear combinations of known theta series of weight 1.

Review text

The author obtains some analogues of Jacobi's derivative formula. Namely, he gives the polynomial expressions of theta derivatives with characteristics from $\frac{1}{4} \mathbb{Z}$ and $\frac{1}{3} \mathbb{Z}$ in terms of the theta constants.
