D. Mumford has shown an excelent algebralization of theory of theta constants and theta functions in his papers: On the equations defining abelian varieties I, II, III (Invent. Math. 1. 237-354 (1966), 3. 75-135 (1967), 3. 215-244) (1967). Our starting point and idea, however, are something different from those of Mumford; we begin our study at characterizing abelian addition formulae among all the possible addition formulae, and we want to give expressions to everything in words of matric notations.
