The multiple zeta values (MZV) are a set of real numbers with a beautiful structure as an algebra over the rational numbers. They are related to maybe the most important conjecture on mathematics today, the Riemann hypothesis. In this paper…

Let s_1,...,s_d be d positive integers and consider the multiple Hurwitz-zeta value zeta(s_1,...,s_d;-1/2,...,-1/2)/2^w where w=s_1+...+s_d is called the weight. For d<n+1, let T(2n,d) be the sum of all these values with even arguments…
We prove that any Mordell-Tornheim sum with positive integer arguments can be expressed as a rational linear combination of multiple zeta values of the same weight and depth. By a result of Tsumura, it follows that any Mordell-Tornheim sum…
Multiple zeta values (MZVs) with certain repeated arguments or certain sums of cyclically generated MZVs are evaluated as rational multiple of powers of $\pi^2$. In this paper, we give a short and simple proof of the remarkable evaluations…
The sum formula for finite and symmetric multiple zeta values, established by Wakabayashi and the authors, implies that if the weight and depth are fixed and the specified component is required to be more than one, then the values sum up to…
A typical formula of multiple zeta values is the sum formula which expresses a Riemann zeta value as a sum of all multiple zeta values of fixed weight and depth. Recently weighted sum formulas, which are weighted analogues of the sum…
Recent results of Zlobin and Cresson-Fischler-Rivoal allow one to decompose any suitable $p$-uple series of hypergeometric type into a linear combination (over the rationals) of multiple zeta values of depth at most $p$; in some cases, only…
In recent years, a variety of variants of multiple zeta values (MZVs) have been defined and studied. One way to produce these variants is to restrict the indices in the definition of MZVs to some fixed parity pattern, which include…
In this paper, we give an elementary account into Zagier's formula for multiple zeta values involving Hoffman elements. Our approach allows us to obtain direct proof in a special case via rational zeta series involving the coefficient…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, we consider the classical Mordell--Tornheim zeta values and their alternating version. It is well-known that these values can be expressed as rational linear combinations of multiple zeta values…
Riemann zeta values are generalized to multiple zeta values (MZVs) by use of nested sums, and MZVs are generalized to regularized multiple zeta values (RMZVs) by regularization of divergent infinite series. In the present paper, we prove…
We show that if a,b,c,d,f are positive integers such that a+b+c+d+f is even, then the Witten zeta value zeta_{sl(4)}(a,b,c,d,0,f) is expressible in terms of Witten zeta functions with fewer arguments.
We prove a new class of relations among multiple zeta values (MZV's) which contains Ohno's relation. We also give the formula for the maximal number of independent MZV's of fixed weight, under our new relations. To derive our formula for…
We prove and conjecture several relations between multizeta values for $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$, focusing on zeta-like values, namely those whose ratio with the zeta value of the same weight is rational (or equivalently algebraic). In particular,…
The multiple zeta values are multivariate generalizations of the values of the Riemann zeta function at positive integers. The Bowman-Bradley theorem asserts that the multiple zeta values at the sequences obtained by inserting a fixed…
We prove an easy but interesting result about the linear independence of multiple zeta values of different weights.
Let Q(4n,d) be the sum of all multiple zeta values of depth d and weight 4n whose arguments are all multiples of 4. In this paper we derive a formula of Q(4n,d) for all d>2 as a finite sum involving binomial coefficients, Bernoulli numbers…
We establish a short exact sequence about depth-graded motivic double zeta values of even weight relative to $\mu_2$. We find a basis for the depth-graded motivic double zeta values relative to $\mu_2$ of even weight and a basis for the…
