Bethe type equation (cyclotomic equation)

Let '<math>\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{q^{n(an+b)/2}}{

\prod_{j=1}^{r}(q^{c_j};q^{d_j})_n^{e_j}}=\sum_{N=0}^{\infty} a_N q^{N}</math>.

Then <math>\prod_{j=1}^{r}(1-x^{d_j})^{e_j}=x^a</math> has a unique root <math>0<\mu<1</math>. We get

<math>\log^2 a_N \sim 4N\sum_{j=1}^{r}\frac{e_j}{d_j}L(1-\mu^{d_j})</math>

a=4,d_1=2.d_2=2,e=1

The equation becomes <math>(1-x^{2})^{2}=x^{4}</math>.

<math>x^2=\frac{1}{2}</math>

<math>4L(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}\pi^2)=\frac{1}{3}\pi^2</math>

dilogarithm identity

<math>L(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{12}\pi^2</math>
