Abstract

Poly-Bernoulli numbers Bn(k)QB_n^{(k)}\in\mathbb{Q}\,(n0n \geq 0,\,kZk \in \mathbb{Z}) are defined by Kaneko in 1997. Multi-Poly-Bernoulli numbers\,Bn(k1,k2,,kr)B_n^{(k_1,k_2,\ldots, k_r)}, defined by using multiple polylogarithms, are generations of Kaneko's Poly-Bernoulli numbers\,Bn(k)B_n^{(k)}. We researched relations between Multi-Poly-Bernoulli numbers and Poly-Bernoulli numbers of negative index in particular. In section 2, we introduce a identity for Multi-Poly-Bernoulli numbers of negative index which was proved by Kamano. In section 3, as main results, we introduce some relations between Multi-Poly-Bernoulli numbers and Poly-Bernoulli numbers of negative index in particular.
