Taking inspiration from the work of Lanphier \cite{LANPHIER2022125716}, a generalized multivariable polynomial formulation for sums of alternating powers is given, as well as analogous sums. Furthermore, an analog of the Euler-Maclaurin…
We present a proof of the compositional shuffle conjecture, which generalizes the famous shuffle conjecture for the character of the diagonal coinvariant algebra. We first formulate the combinatorial side of the conjecture in terms of…
We give a formula for a $q$-analogue of Boyadzhiev-Mneimneh-type binomial sums of finite multi-polylogarithms. In the limit as $q\to 1$, this formula reduces to an identity equivalent to the Sakugawa-Seki identities. We also give a formula…
Partial fraction methods play an important role in the study of multiple zeta values. One class of such fractions is related to the integral representations of MZVs. We show that this class of fractions has a natural structure of shuffle…
Recently, Maesaka, Watanabe, and the third author discovered a phenomenon where the iterated integral expressions of multiple zeta values become discretized. In this paper, we extend their result to the case of multiple polylogarithms and…
We prove recursive formulas for sums of squares and sums of triangular numbers in terms of sums of divisors functions and we give a variety of consequences of these formulas. Intermediate applications include statements about positivity of…
An extension of the theory of the Iterated Logarithmic Algebra gives the logarithmic analog of a Sheffer or Appell sequence of polynomials. This leads to several examples including Stirling's formula and a logarithmic version of the…
In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Chan and Chua for the number of representations of integers as sums of 8s integral squares. The proof uses a theorem of Imamo\={g}lu and Kohnen, and the double shuffle relations satisfied by the…
Using some basic properties of the gamma function, we evaluate a simple class of infinite products involving Dirichlet characters as a finite product of gamma functions and, in the case of odd characters, as a finite product of sines. As a…
In this paper, we present a general framework for the derivation of interesting finite combinatorial sums starting with certain classes of polynomial identities. The sums that can be derived involve products of binomial coefficients and…
A permutation is said to be a square if it can be obtained by shuffling two order-isomorphic patterns. The definition is intended to be the natural counterpart to the ordinary shuffle of words and languages. In this paper, we tackle the…
Multiple Dedekind zeta values were recently defined by the second author. In a separate paper, the second author constructed double shuffle relations in some cases as a response to questions asked by Richard Hain and Alexander Goncharov. In…
We prove that every quasi-copula can be written as a uniformly converging infinite sum of multiples of copulas. Furthermore, we characterize those quasi-copulas which can be written as a finite sum of multiples of copulas, i.e., that are a…
The objective of the paper is the study of Mneimneh-like sums with a parametric variant of the multiple harmonic-star values. We generalize and resolve the Pan-Xu conjecture on generalized Mneimneh-like sums and present their…
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 $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$.
This paper is an enhanced version of a more than decade-older paper with a similar title. Many formulae involving both finite and infinite sums of digamma and polygamma functions up to quadratic order, few of which appear in standard…
In this article, we study the shuffle quadri-algebra H. We prove the existence of some relations between quadri-algebra laws which constitute shuffle product, the concatenation product and the deconcatenation coproduct. We also show that…
We provide a systematic method to compute arithmetic sums including some previously computed by Alaca, Alaca, Besge, Cheng, Glaisher, Huard, Lahiri, Lemire, Melfi, Ou, Ramanujan, Spearman and Williams. Our method is based on quasimodular…
A recent paper of A. Sofo proves some results about sums of products of quadratic alternating harmonic numbers and reciprocal binomial coefficients. In this paper, we extend his result to cubic alternating harmonic number sums and develop…
Several infinite products are studied that satisfy the transformation relation of the type $f(\alpha)=f(1/\alpha)$. For certain values of the parameters these infinite products reduce to modular forms. Finite counterparts of these infinite…
