On multiple polylogarithms in characteristic $p$: $v$-adic vanishing versus $\infty$-adic Eulerianness

Abstract

In this paper, we give a simultaneous vanishing principle for the vv-adic Carlitz multiple polylogarithms (abbreviated as CMPLs) at algebraic points, where vv is a finite place of the rational function field over a finite field. This principle establishes the fact that the vv-adic vanishing of CMPLs at algebraic points is equivalent to its \infty-adic counterpart being Eulerian. This reveals a nontrivial connection between the vv-adic and \infty-adic worlds in positive characteristic.
