This is a summary for the authors' article "The formal KZ equation on the moduli space ${\mathcal M}_{0,5}$ and the harmonic product of multiple zeta values" (prerint (2009) arXiv:0910.0718), including a new result on the five term relation…
The harmonic polylogarithms (hpl's) are introduced. They are a generalization of Nielsen's polylogarithms, satisfying a product algebra (the product of two hpl's is in turn a combination of hpl's) and forming a set closed under the…
In this article, we express solutions of the Gauss hypergeometric equation as a series of the multiple polylogarithms by using iterated integral. This representation is the most simple case of a semisimple representation of solutions of the…
We generalize the well-known parity theorem for multiple zeta values (MZV) to functional equations of multiple polylogarithms (MPL). This reproves the parity theorem for MZV with an additional integrality statement, and also provides parity…
We initiate a study of Hilbert modules over the polynomial algebra A=C[z_1,...,z_d] that are obtained by completing A with respect to an inner product having certain natural properties. A standard Hilbert module is a finite multiplicity…
In this paper, we investigate the shuffle product relations for Euler-Zagier multiple zeta functions as functional relations. To this end, we generalize the classical partial fraction decomposition formula and give two proofs. One is based…
In recent three--loop calculations of massive Feynman integrals within Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and, e.g., in recent combinatorial problems the so-called generalized harmonic sums (in short $S$-sums) arise. They are characterized by…
Many product formulas are known classically for generalized hypergeometric functions over the complex numbers. In this paper, we establish some analogous formulas for generalized hypergeometric functions over finite fields.
This note is a compilation of related research on modular relations for multiple zeta values. Roughly speaking, modular relations are (homogeneous) linear relations of multiple zeta values of fixed weight whose coefficients are `originated'…
A generalization of the classical Lipschitz summation formula is proposed. It involves new polylogarithmic rational functions constructed via the Fourier expansion of certain sequences of Bernoulli--type polynomials. Related families of…
The theory of generalized matric Massey products has been applied for some time to $A$-modules $M$, $A$ a $k$-algebra. The main application is to compute the local formal moduli $\hat{H}_M$, isomorphic to the local ring of the moduli of…
We survey various results and conjectures concerning multiple polylogarithms and the multiple zeta function. Among the results, we announce our resolution of several conjectures on multiple zeta values. We also provide a new integral…
In this article, we consider the connection problem of the KZ (Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov) equation on the moduli space $\cM_{0,5}$, and show that the connection matrices are expressed in terms of the Drinfel'd associator. As the compatibility…
A difference equation analogue of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation is exhibited by developing a theory of the generating function $H(z)$ of Hurwitz polyzeta functions to parallel that of the polylogarithms. By emulating the role of the…
Recently, several people study finite multiple zeta values (FMZVs) and finite polylogarithms (FPs). In this paper, we introduce finite multiple polylogarithms (FMPs), which are natural generalizations of FMZVs and FPs, and we establish…
This paper presents a fairly general version of the well-known Gleason-Kahane-$\dot{\text{Z}}$elazko (GKZ) theorem in the spirit of a GKZ type theorem obtained recently by Mashreghi and Ransford for Hardy spaces. In effect, we characterize…
In this review article, we report on some recent advances on the computational aspects of cohomology intersection numbers of GKZ systems developed in \cite{GM}, \cite{MH}, \cite{MT} and \cite{MT2}. We also discuss the relation between…
We construct polynomial solutions of the KZ differential equations over a finite field $F_p$ as analogs of hypergeometric solutions.
We define subvarieties of $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$ equipped with algebraic functions that are solutions to the generic double shuffle equations satisfied by multiple polylogarithms on $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$.
We provide a framework for relating certain q-series defined by sums over partitions to multiple zeta values. In particular, we introduce a space of polynomial functions on partitions for which the associated q-series are q-analogues of…
