There has been an avalanche of recent research on multiple zeta values. We propose dividing identities for multiple zeta values into structural and specific types. Structural identities are valid for any generalized multiple zeta function,…

In this paper, we give a formula that connects two variants of multiple zeta values; multitangent functions and symmetric multiple zeta values. As an application of this formula, we give two results. First, we prove Bouillot's conjecture on…

The set of multiple zeta-star values is a countable dense subset of the half line $(1,+\infty)$. In this paper, we establish some classical Diophantine type results for the set of multiple zeta-star values. Firstly, we give a criterion to…

Observing a multiple version of the divisor function we introduce a new zeta function which we call a multiple finite Riemann zeta function. We utilize some $q$-series identity for proving the zeta function has an Euler product and then,…

Multiple zeta values (MZVs, also called Euler sums or multiple harmonic series) are nested generalizations of the classical Riemann zeta function evaluated at integer values. The fact that an integral representation of MZVs obeys a shuffle…

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,…

Euler's sum formula and its multi-variable and weighted generalizations form a large class of the identities of multiple zeta values. In this paper we prove a family of identities involving Bernoulli numbers and apply them to obtain…

In this paper, we formally introduce the notion of Ap{\'e}ry-like sums and we show that every multiple zeta values can be expressed as a $\bf Z$-linear combination of them. We even describe a canonical way to do so. This allows us to put in…

We give a new expression of the multiple harmonic sum, which serves as a refinement of the iterated integral expression of the multiple zeta value, and prove it using the so-called connected sum method. Based on this fact, by taking two…

Formal multiple zeta values allow to study multiple zeta values by algebraic methods in a way that the open question about their transcendence is circumvented. In this note we show that Hoffman's basis conjecture for formal multiple zeta…

Let $r\ge 1$ be an integer. For any multiple index $\mathbf{s}=(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r) \in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}^r$ with $s_r>1$, the multiple zeta value (MZV for short) is defined by \begin{align*} \zeta(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r):=\sum_{1\leq…
