This paper gives a new application of so-called connected sums, introduced recently by Seki and Yamamoto. Special about our approach is that it proves a duality for the Schlesinger-Zudilin and the Bradley-Zhao model of qMZVs simultaneously.…

We introduce a $q$-analog of the multiple harmonic series commonly referred to as multiple zeta values. The multiple $q$-zeta values satisfy a $q$-stuffle multiplication rule analogous to the stuffle multiplication rule arising from the…

We study a variant of multiple zeta values of level 2, which forms a subspace of the space of alternating multiple zeta values. This variant, which is regarded as the `shuffle counterpart' of Hoffman's `odd variant', exhibits nice…

We construct a q-analogue of truncated version of symmetric multiple zeta values which satisfies the double shuffle relation. Using it, we define a q-analogue of symmetric multiple zeta values and see that it satisfies many of the same…

We introduce an algebra which describes the multiplication structure of a family of q-series containing a q-analogue of multiple zeta values. The double shuffle relations are formulated in our framework. They contain a q-analogue of…

In this paper, we study specific families of multiple zeta values which closely relate to the linear part of Kawashima's relation. We obtain an explicit basis of these families, and investigate their interpolations to complex functions. As…

One of the important research subjects in the study of multiple zeta functions is to clarify the linear relations and functional equations among them. The Schur multiple zeta functions are a generalization of the multiple zeta functions of…

Quasi-shuffle products, introduced by the first author, have been useful in studying multiple zeta values and some of their analogues and generalizations. The second author, together with Kajikawa, Ohno, and Okuda, significantly extended…
