On some combinations of multiple zeta-star values

Number Theory 2010-04-22 v2

Abstract

We prove that the sum of multiple zeta-star values over all indices inserted two 2's into the string (3,1,...,3,12n)(\underbrace{3,1, ..., 3,1}_{2n}) is evaluated to a rational multiple of powers of π2\pi^2. We also establish certain conjectures on evaluations of multiple zeta-star values observed by numerical experiments.
