Abstract
Let be positive integers with and , define the so-called Euler type sums , which are the infinite sums whose general term is a product of harmonic numbers of index , a power of and variable , by where is defined by the generalized harmonic number. Extending earlier work about classical Euler sums, we prove that whenever , then all sums can be expressed as a rational linear combination of products of zeta values, polylogarithms and . The proof involves finding and solving linear equations which relate the different types of sums to each other.
