Designation of branch cuts is sometimes denoted by natural language.
While the end points are specific -- depend of singularities -- the
cuts can be moved for convenience, and this is done often to evaluate
contour integrals, for example.
Take up a book on complex analysis and see what problems y
thanks for all the references :)
I'm not sure if I'm going to repeat comments I made already somewhere.
First, has Dan Zwillinger weighed in? I think that it would be useful
to see what he has done.
Next, there are ambiguities among CAS and even within a single CAS.
For example, in Macsyma/

My current thinking involves a tree-structuring of the rule patterns

It seems to me that in-lining a function of any significant length is very
likely to be a mistake, though I suppose it depends on the memory cache
management. If the in-lining is done to remove consing, then perhaps the
solution is to address the consing itself. I don't know the exact

The Franz Lisp system (on the VAX) had a file-compiler feature which allowed
you to
group functions that were (in today's nomenclature) private, and could only

from functions in that file. It was not possible to redefine such internal

If you do the same as Ron Avitzur, you open a socket and
send a string in prefix form, like
(integrate (sin x) x)
and you get a response like (-1)*cos(x)
Even easier would be (* -1 (cos x))
but that is not what Ron wanted.
The socket is at tilu/integrateGC2
