Abstract: The general analytic solution to the functional equation phi_1(x+y)= { { �iggl|matrix{phi_2(x)&phi_2(y)crphi_3(x)&phi_3(y)cr}�iggr|} over { �iggl|matrix{phi_4(x)&phi_4(y)crphi_5(x)&phi_5(y)cr}�iggr|} } is characterised. Up to the action of the symmetry group, this is described in terms of Weierstrass elliptic functions. We illustrate our theory by applying it to the classical addition theorems of the Jacobi elliptic functions and the functional equations phi_1(x+y)=phi_4(x)phi_5(y)+phi_4(y)phi_5(x) and [ Psi _1(x+y)=Psi _2(x+y) phi_2(x)phi_3(y) +Psi_3(x+y) phi_4(x)phi_5(y). ]
