Maple symgen result This shows Maple’s found \(\xi ,\eta \) and the corresponding canonical coordinates \(R,S\)\begin{align*} \\ \\ \end{align*}
\begin{align*} \\ \left [R &= x, S \left (R \right ) &= \frac {y}{\operatorname {LegendreP}\left (\nu , n , x\right )}\right ] \\ \end{align*}
\begin{align*} \\ \left [R &= x, S \left (R \right ) &= \frac {y}{\operatorname {LegendreQ}\left (\nu , n , x\right )}\right ] \\ \end{align*}
