Classical and Quantum Dilogarithm Identities

Abstract: Abstract. Using the quantum cluster algebra formalism of Fock and Goncharov, we present several forms of quantum dilogarithm identities associated with periodicities in quantum cluster algebras, namely, the tropical, universal, and local forms. We then demonstrate how classical dilogarithm identities naturally emerge from quantum dilogarithm identities in local form in the semiclassical limit by applying the saddle point method.

“…In another direction, an exponentiated quantum deformation of the dilogarithm, the quantum dilograrithm, which satisfies a deformed functional equation, was proposed by Faddeev and Kashaev [23]) in 1994. It has since been much studied, see the survey of Kashaev and Nakanishi [40]. Certain dilogarithm identities play a role in integrable models and in conformal field theory (Nahm et al [58], Kirillov [41,42]).…”

“…This is our second main result. We note that a quantum dilogarithm identity is also associated with the same periodicity of the cluster algebra [Kel11,Nag11,KN11]. For example, the quantum dilogarithm identity associated with the same period of a pentagon gives the celebrated pentagon identity by [FK94], and it looks as follows:…”

“…The action of the operatorsμ k and P k defined before, extends naturally to an action on p and u. In the following we will only need explicitly the action of P k on u, which is linear [11]:…”

“…Moreover, we will actually see that Z cluster G (M ) is more well suited for the case that M can be obtained from a mapping torus construction. The cluster partition function was originally proposed in [10] based on ideas of [11], however important modifications were done in [3] to get it to the form we will present here. It is not immediately obvious that the function Z cluster G (M ) we obtain is well defined as a nonperturbative invariant but we can propose perturbative topological invariants of M starting from Z cluster G (M ).…”
