Analytic continuation of multiple polylogarithms in positive characteristic

Number Theory 2022-11-16 v3

Abstract

Our aim of this paper is to propose a method of analytic continuation of Carlitz multiple (star) polylogarithms to the whole space by using Artin-Schreier equation and present a treatment of their branches by introducing the notion of monodromy modules. As applications of this method, we obtain (1) a method of continuation of the logarithms of higher tensor powers of Carlitz module, (2) the orthogonal property (Chang-Mishiba functional relations), (3) a branch independency of the Eulerian property.
