The $\\lambda$ generalized correlations $C(M,N;\\lambda)$ are defined and explicitly computed in terms of theta functions for $M=N=0,1$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-03-11T18:00:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "34M55", "47E05", "81Qxx", "32G34", "34Lxx", "34Mxx", "14Kxx" ], "keywords": [ "ising susceptibility", "review developments", "form factors", "theta functions", "ising model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011ntqi.conf..287M" } } }
