The cosine integral is defined by $$\mathrm{Ci}(z) = -\displaystyle\int_z^{\infty} \dfrac{\cos t}{t} \mathrm{d}t, \quad |\mathrm{arg} z|<\pi.$$

Relationship to other functions

Theorem

The following formula holds: $$\mathrm{Ei}(ix)=\mathrm{Ci}(x)+i\mathrm{Si}(x),$$ where $\mathrm{Ei}$ denotes the exponential integral Ei, $\mathrm{Ci}$ denotes the cosine integral, and $\mathrm{Si}$ denotes the sine integral.

Proof
