Multiple zeta values have been studied by a wide variety of methods. In this article we summarize some of the results about them that can be obtained by an algebraic approach. This involves "coding" the multiple zeta values by monomials in…

Suppose a positive integer $n$ is written as a sum of squares of $m$ integers. What can one say about the value $T$ of the sum of these $m$ integers itself? Which $T$ can be obtained if one considers all possible representations of $n$ as a…

In this paper, we explain several conjectures about how a product of two Carlitz-Goss zeta values can be expressed as a F_p-linear combination of Thakur's multizeta values, generalizing the q=2 case dealt by D. Thakur in Relations between…

We show the recurrence relations of the Euler-Zagier multiple zeta-function which describes the $r$-fold function with one variable specialized to a non-positive integer as a rational linear combination of $(r-1)$-fold functions, which…

We combine the powerful method of Wilf-Zeilberger pairs with systematic theory of multiple zeta values to prove a large number of series identities due to Z.W. Sun, many of them have been long standing conjectures.

We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…

It is known that multiple zeta values can be written in terms of certain iterated log-sine integrals. Conversely, we evaluate iterated log-sine integrals in terms of multiple polylogarithms and multiple zeta values in this paper. We also…

We introduce an iterated integral version of (generalized) log-sine integrals (iterated log-sine integrals) and prove a relation between a multiple polylogarithm and iterated log-sine integrals. We also give a new method for obtaining…

The cyclic insertion conjecture of Borwein, Bradley, Broadhurst and Lison\v{e}k states that inserting all cyclic shifts of some fixed blocks of 2's into the multiple zeta value {\zeta}(1,3,...,1,3) gives an explicit rational multiple of a…

The Kaneko--Zagier conjecture describes a correspondence between finite multiple zeta values and symmetric multiple zeta values. Its refined version has been established by Jarossay, Rosen and Ono--Seki--Yamamoto. In this paper, we…

Bowman and Bradley obtained a remarkable formula among multiple zeta values. The formula states that the sum of multiple zeta values for indices which consist of the shuffle of two kinds of the strings $\{1,3,\ldots,1,3\}$ and…

We introduce and study a ``level two'' analogue of finite multiple zeta values. We give conjectural bases of the space of finite Euler sums as well as that of usual finite multiple zeta values in terms of these newly defined elements. A…

We prove some generalizations of the sum formula for multiple zeta values by using Hiroyuki Ochiai's method of proving the sum formula.

For a composition $I$ whose first part exceeds 1, we can define the multiple $t$-value $t(I)$ as the sum of all the terms in the series for the multiple zeta value $\zeta(I)$ whose denominators are odd. In this paper we show that if $I$ is…

P. Flajolet and B. Salvy \cite{FS1998} prove the famous theorem that a nonlinear Euler sum $S_{i_1i_2\cdots i_r,q}$ reduces to a combination of sums of lower orders whenever the weight $i_1+i_2+\cdots+i_r+q$ and the order $r$ are of the…

The study of this paper is inspired by the conjecture of Zagier on the explicit dimension formula for the space of the same weight double zeta values in terms of the dimension of cusp forms for SL_{2}(Z). Our main result is to devise an…

In this paper, we study multiple zeta values (abbreviated as MZV's) over function fields in positive characteristic. Our main result is to prove Thakur's basis conjecture, which plays the analogue of Hoffman's basis conjecture for real…

Historically, the polylogarithm has attracted specialists and non-specialists alike with its lovely evaluations. Much the same can be said for Euler sums (or multiple harmonic sums), which, within the past decade, have arisen in…

In this paper we present a new family of identities for Euler sums and integrals of polylogarithms by using the methods of generating function and integral representations of series. Then we apply it to obtain the closed forms of all…
