Errata for Taylor-Woodward
As pointed out to us by Francesco Costantino:
(1) There are sequences of 6j symbols obtained by re-scaling with
infinitely many zeroes, so that the definition of convergence does not
make sense.
In this case, the definition of asymptotic convergence may be replaced
with the following: We say that two functions f,g of a positive
integer k are asympotically convergent if and only if
f(k) - g(k) is o(1/k)f(k), or equivalently, f(k) - g(k) is o(1/k)
g(k).
The main result of the paper shows something stronger,
namely if f and g denote the 6j symbols and asymptotic formula
respectively, then f(k) - g(k) is o(k^{-2}), whereas
f(k) goes like k^{-3/2}. Thus, the statement and proof
in this caes are the same.
(2) A sign is missing in Schlafli's formula (or alternatively,
the dihedral angles should be interior.)
