內維爾 Θ 函數（Neville Theta functions）共有四個，定義如下：

 $NevilleC(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {(}}2)*q(m)^{1/4}*(\sum _{k=0}^{\infty }(q(m)^{(}k*(k+1))*cos((1/2)*(2*k+1)*\pi *z/K(m))))}{{\sqrt {(}}K(m))*m^{1/4}}}$
 $NevilleThetaC(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {(}}2*\pi )*q(m)^{1/4}*(\sum _{k=0}^{\infty }(q(m)^{k*(k+1)}*cos((1/2)*(2*k+1)*\pi *z/K(m))))}{{\sqrt {(}}K(m))*m^{1/4}}}$
 $NevilleThetaD(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {(}}(1/2)*\pi )*(1+2*(\sum _{k=1}^{\infty }(q(m)^{(}k^{2})*cos(k*\pi *z/K(m)))))}{{\sqrt {(}}K(m))}}$
 $NevilleThetaN(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {(}}\pi )*(1+2*(\sum _{k=1}^{\infty }((-1)^{k}*q(m)^{k^{2}}*cos(k*\pi *z/K(m)))))}{{\sqrt {(}}2)*(1-m)^{(}1/4)*{\sqrt {K(m)}}}}$
 $$

其中

 
* $K(m)=EllipticK({\sqrt {(}}m))$

* $K'(m)=EllipticK({\sqrt {(}}1-m))$

* $q(m)=e^{\frac {-\pi *K(m)}{K'(m)}}$

尼維爾 Θ 函數也可以通過雅可比 Θ 函數的傅立葉級數來定義，並使得尼維爾 Θ 函數可以進一步被用於定義相對應的雅可比橢圓函數。

　
: $\theta _{c}(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {2\pi }}\,q(m)^{1/4}}{m^{1/4}{\sqrt {K(m)}}}}\,\,\sum _{k=0}^{\infty }(q(m))^{k(k+1)}\cos \left({\frac {(2k+1)\pi z}{2K(m)}}\right)$

　
: $\theta _{d}(z,m)={\frac {\sqrt {2\pi }}{2{\sqrt {K(m)}}}}\,\,\left(1+2\,\sum _{k=1}^{\infty }(q(m))^{k^{2}}\cos \left({\frac {\pi zk}{K(m)}}\right)\right)$

　
: $\theta _{n}(z,m)={\frac {\sqrt {2\pi }}{2(1-m)^{1/4}{\sqrt {K(m)}}}}\,\,\left(1+2\sum _{k=1}^{\infty }(-1)^{k}(q(m))^{k^{2}}\cos \left({\frac {\pi zk}{K(m)}}\right)\right)$

　
: $\theta _{s}(z,m)={\frac {{\sqrt {2\pi }}\,q(m)^{1/4}}{m^{1/4}(1-m)^{1/4}{\sqrt {K(m)}}}}\,\,\sum _{k=0}^{\infty }(-1)^{k}(q(m))^{k(k+1)}\sin \left({\frac {(2k+1)\pi z}{2K(m)}}\right)$

這種定義涉及到第一類完全橢圓積分。
