Abstract
With generalized central binomial coefficients defined through Euler's gamma function, we represent deformed Ap\'ery-like series by multiple Clausen values (MCVs), which belong to a special class of cyclotomic multiple zeta values (CMZVs) at level . For example, exploiting provable algebraic relations among MCVs, we show that andwhere and .
