Dilogarithm

Dilogarithm (z)

The Dilogarithm function returns the dilogarithm for real or complex argument z. The dilogarithm is a special case of the polylogarithm defined by

Li2(z)=k=1zkk2.\displaystyle L i_{2}(z)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{z^{k}}{k^{2}} .

The Dilogarithm function was added in Igor Pro 7.00.
