Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz and dilogarithm identities I.

Authors: Edward Frenkel and András Szenes
Author institution: Harvard University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Summary: We prove an infinite series of multi-parameter dilogarithm identities generalizing the well known Euler and Abel (pentagon) identities. These identities have been recently conjectured by physicists in connection with Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz.
