Abstract

Denote by ϵ\epsilon a primitive root of NthN^{th}-unity. In this paper, we show that the unit cyclotomic multiple zeta values for μN\mu_N generate all the cyclotomic multiple zeta values for μN\mu_N in cases N=2,3,4N=2,3,4. Moreover, the unit cyclotomic multiple zeta values for μN\mu_N can be written as Q\mathbb{Q}-linear combinations of (ζ(1ϵ))n,(ζ(1ϵ1))n\left(\zeta\binom{1}{\epsilon}\right)^n, \left(\zeta\binom{1}{\epsilon^{-1}}\right)^n and lower depth terms in each weight nn in case of N=2,3N=2,3 and 44. By detailed analysis of the motivic Galois action, we compute the coefficients of (ζ(1ϵ))n,(ζ(1ϵ1))n\left(\zeta\binom{1}{\epsilon}\right)^n, \left(\zeta\binom{1}{\epsilon^{-1}}\right)^n in the above expressions of unit cyclotomic multiple zeta values.
