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 prove that the sum of multiple zeta-star values over all indices inserted two 2's into the string $(\underbrace{3,1, ..., 3,1}_{2n})$ is evaluated to a rational multiple of powers of $\pi^2$. We also establish certain conjectures on…

We study multiple zeta values (MZVs) from the viewpoint of zeta-functions associated with the root systems which we have studied in our previous papers. In fact, the $r$-ple zeta-functions of Euler-Zagier type can be regarded as the…

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 consider iterated integrals of multiple polylogarithm functions and prove some explicit relations of multiple polylogarithm functions. Then we apply the relations obtained to find numerous formulas of alternating multiple…

We construct an analytic approach to evaluate odd Euler sums, multiple zeta value $\zeta(3,2,\ldots,2)$ and multiple $t$-value $t\left(3,2,\ldots,2\right)$. Moreover, we also conjecture a closed expression for multiple $t$-value…

We present several sequences of Euler sums involving odd harmonic numbers. The calculational technique is based on proper two-valued integer functions, which allow to compute these sequences explicitly in terms of zeta values only.

Bowman and Bradley proved an explicit formula for the sum of multiple zeta values whose indices are the sequence (3,1,3,1,...,3,1) with a number of 2's inserted. Kondo, Saito and Tanaka considered the similar sum of multiple zeta-star…

The sum formulas for multiple zeta(-star) values and symmetric multiple zeta(-star) values bear a striking resemblance. We explain the resemblance in a rather straightforward manner using an identity that involves the Schur multiple zeta…
