Abstract
A remarkable product formula first derived by Palmer and Tracy (1981 Adv. Appl. Math.2329) for the integrand of the two-dimensional Ising model susceptibility expansion coefficients (2n )for temperatures Tless than the critical Tcis shown to apply equally for (2n +1)for T >Tcand agrees with formulae derived by Yamada (1984 Prog. Theor. Phys.711416). This new representation simplifies the derivation of the results in the original paper of this title (1999 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen.323889) to the extent that the leading series behaviour and the singularity structure can be deduced almost by inspection. The derivation of series is also simplified and I show, using extended series and knowledge of the singularity structure, that there is now unambiguous evidence for correction to scaling terms in the susceptibility beyond those inferred from a nonlinear scaling field analysis.
