Abstract

We give a finite analogue of the well-known formula Li1,,1n(t)=1n!Li1(t)n\mathrm{Li}_{\underbrace{1, \ldots, 1}_n}(t) = \frac{1}{n!}\mathrm{Li}_1(t)^n of multiple polylogarithms for any positive integer n by using the shuffle relation of finite multiple polylogarithms of Ono-Yamamoto type. Unlike the usual case, the terms regarded as error terms appear in this formula. As a corollary, we obtain "t1t""t \leftrightarrow 1 - t" type new functional equations of finite multiple polylogarithms of Ono-Yamamoto type and Sakugawa-Seki type.
