The purpose of this short note is to give a proof of the following identity between (logarithmic) Mahler measures m(y^2+2xy+y-x^3-2x^2-x)=5/7*m(y^2+4xy+y-x^3+x^2) which is one of many examples that arise from the comparison of Mahler…

We define two $L$-functions associated to a common vector valued eigenform $f$ transforming with the ``finite'' Weil representation. The first one can be seen as a standard zeta function defined by the eigenvalues of $f$. The second one can…

Analytic properties of three types of multiple zeta functions, that is, the Euler-Zagier type, the Mordell-Tornheim type and the Apostol-Vu type have been studied by a lot of authors. In particular, in the study of multiple zeta functions…

This paper explores closed-form expressions for some polylogarithm integrals with integrands containing five parameters. These closed form expressions are given in terms of the Lerch transcendent function, which reduces, in some cases, to…

We consider the alternating zeta function and the alternating $L$-function of a graph $G$, and express them by using the Ihara zeta function of $G$. Next, we define a generalized alternating zeta function of a graph, and express the…

We explicitly evaluate a special type of multiple Dirichlet $L$-values at positive integers in two different ways: One approach involves using symmetric functions, while the other involves using a generating function of the values. Equating…

We present several formulas for some specific multiple $L$-values of conductor four. This grew out from the study of zeta functions of level four of Arakawa-Kaneko type. Closely related is a new version of multiple poly-Euler numbers and we…

Inspired by the work of Deninger, we present a formula that relates the Mahler measure of a two-variable variant of cyclotomic polynomial to regulator of class in motivic cohomology associated to cyclotomic fields and linear combination of…

We have shown that in some region where the Euler integral of the first kind diverges, the Euler formula defines a generalized function. The connected of this generalized function with the Dirac delta function is found.

The Mahler measure of a function on the real d-torus is its geometric mean over the torus. It appears in number theory, ergodic theory and other fields. The Fuglede-Kadison determinant is defined in the context of von Neumann algebra theory…

By introducing a generalized notion of multiple zeta values associated with an arbitrary finite subset $S\subset \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ and studying their transformation properties under rational functions, we show that multiple…

Mahler's problem asks for the largest possible value of the Mahler measure, normalized by the $L_2$ norm, of a polynomial with $\pm1$ coefficients and large degree. We establish a new record value in this problem exceeding $0.95$ by…

We prove a kind of integral expressions for finite multiple harmonic sums and multiple zeta-star values. Moreover, we introduce a class of multiple integrals, associated with some combinatorial data (called 2-labeled posets). This class…
