High order entropies in the Ising system

Define the kth-order entropy of the n-spin Ising system by
eqnarray2103
We may substitute the result for tex2html_wrap_inline14457 into the expression for the entropy, and using tex2html_wrap_inline14459 (the derivative with respect to tex2html_wrap_inline14461 of tex2html_wrap_inline14463, setting tex2html_wrap_inline14461 to one) then find
 eqnarray2131
