On functional equations for the elliptic dilogarithm

Abstract: Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We prove that the pre-Bloch group of the function field of $E$ can be generated by the functions of degree not higher than 3. We apply this result to the elliptic dilogarithm function defined by S. Bloch. He has shown that any element of the pre-Bloch group gives a (so-called elliptic Bloch) relation between the values of the so-called Elliptic dilogarithm. We conclude that any elliptic Bloch relation can be reduced to the antisymmetry relation and the elliptic Bloch relations for the functions of degree 3.
