We introduce Schur multiple zeta functions which interpolate both the multiple zeta and multiple zeta-star functions of the Euler-Zagier type combinatorially. We first study their basic properties including a region of absolute convergence…
We define polynomials of one variable t whose values at t=0 and 1 are the multiple zeta values and the multiple zeta-star values, respectively. We give an application to the two-one conjecture of Ohno-Zudilin, and also prove the cyclic sum…
In this short note we will provide a new and shorter proof of the following exotic shuffle relation of multiple zeta values: $$\zeta(\{2\}^m \sha\{3,1\}^n)={2n+m\choose m} \frac{\pi^{4n+2m}}{(2n+1)\cdot (4n+2m+1)!}.$$ This was proved by…
In this paper we define a continuous version of multiple zeta functions. They can be analytically continued to meromorphic functions on $\mathbb{C}^r$ with only simple poles at some special hyperplanes. The evaluations of these functions at…
We introduce an algebraic formulation of cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta values and for multiple zeta-star values. We also present an algebraic proof of cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta values and for multiple zeta-star values by…
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 show that any convergent (shuffle) arborified zeta value admits a series representation. This justifies the introduction of a new generalisation to rooted forests of multiple zeta values, and we study its algebraic properties. As a…
We solve an interpolation problem for computing $\zeta(2n)$ in a rather elementary way, by generalizing the main idea in \cite{SE}.
We define a class of expressions for the multiple zeta function, and show how to determine whether an expression in the class vanishes identically. The class of such identities, which we call partition identities, is shown to coincide with…
In this paper we prove some new identities for multiple zeta values and multiple zeta star values of arbitrary depth by using the methods of integral computations of logarithm function and iterated integral representations of series. By…
We extend the block filtration, defined by Brown based on the work of Charlton, to all motivic multiple zeta values, and study relations compatible with this filtration. We construct a Lie algebra describing relations among motivic multiple…
The monodromy conjecture states that every pole of the topological (or related) zeta function induces an eigenvalue of monodromy. This conjecture has already been studied a lot; however, in full generality it is proven only for zeta…
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 present a concise method for deriving an explicit formula for $p$-adic multiple zeta values. The formula features a variant of multiple harmonic sums, termed binomial multiple harmonic sums.
Gangl, Kaneko, and Zagier gave explicit linear relations among double zeta values of odd indices coming from the period polynomials of modular forms for ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper, we generalize their result to the linear…
We consider a cyclic analogue of multiple zeta values (CMZVs), which has two kinds of expressions; series and integral expression. We prove an `integral$=$series' type identity for CMZVs. By using this identity, we construct two classes of…
We present an extension of the duality theorem, previously defined by S. Catani et al. on the one-loop level, to higher loop orders. The duality theorem provides a relation between loop integrals and tree-level phase-space integrals. Here,…
We present several conjectures on multiple q-zeta values and on the role they play in certain problems of enumerative geometry.
We study generating functions for multiple zeta star values in general form. These generating functions provide a connection between multiple zeta star values and multiple Euler sums, which allows us to express each multiple zeta star value…
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…
