Reference. This article is a part of Librow scientific formula calculator project.

1. Definition

Arc-hyperbolic cotangent is inverse of hyperbolic cotangent function. With the help of natural logarithm it can be represented as:

2. Plot

Arc-hyperbolic cotangent is antisymmetric function defined everywhere on real axis, except the range [−1, 1] — so, its domain is (−∞, −1)∪(1, +∞). Points x = ±1 are singular ones. Function plot is depicted below — fig. 1.

Function codomain is entire real axis, except 0: (−∞, 0)∪(0, +∞).

3. Identities

Property of antisymmetry:

Reciprocal argument:

Sum and difference:

4. Support

Arc-hyperbolic contangent function arcoth or arcth of the real argument is supported by free version of the Librow calculator.

Arc-hyperbolic contangent function arcoth or arcth of the complex argument is supported by professional version of the Librow calculator.
