It is well-known that the Ap\'ery sequences which arise in the irrationality proofs for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ satisfy many intriguing arithmetic properties and are related to the $p$th Fourier coefficients of modular forms. In this…
We express a family of basic cellular integrals over moduli spaces of curves explicitly in terms of multiple zeta values, answering a question of Brown. Moreover, we study a priori the weights appearing in these integrals and find a…
In this paper, we give elementary proofs of Zagier's formula for multiple zeta values involving Hoffman element and its odd variant due to Murakami. Zagier's formula was a key ingredient in the proof of Hoffman's conjecture. Moreover, using…
Zagier proved that the traces of singular moduli, i.e., the sums of the values of the classical j-invariant over quadratic irrationalities, are the Fourier coefficients of a modular form of weight 3/2 with poles at the cusps. Using the…
We compute the Archimedean doubling zeta integrals which appear in the interpolation formulas for the p-adic L-functions of Siegel modular forms, and verify that they agree with the modified Archimedean Euler factors for p-adic…
In the course of the proof of the irrationality of zeta(2) R. Apery introduced numbers b_n = \sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k}^2{n+k \choose k}. Stienstra and Beukers showed that for the prime p > 3 Apery numbers satisfy congruence b((p-1)/2) =…
In this paper, we study some Euler-Ap\'ery-type series which involve central binomial coefficients and (generalized) harmonic numbers. In particular, we establish elegant explicit formulas of some series by iterated integrals and…
In this paper, we study the evaluation formulas of the interpolated multiple zeta values and the interpolated multiple $t$-values with indices involving $1,2,3$. To get these evaluations, we derive the corresponding algebraic relations in…
In the proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ and $\zeta(2)$, Ap\'ery defined two integer sequences through $3$-term recurrences, which are known as the famous Ap\'ery numbers. Zagier, Almkvist--Zudilin and Cooper successively introduced…
In this paper, we investigate linear relations among regularized motivic iterated integrals on $\mathbb{P}^{1}\setminus\{0,1,\infty\}$ of depth two, which we call regularized motivic double zeta values. Some mysterious connections between…
We prove an interpolation formula for the values of certain $p$-adic Rankin--Selberg $L$-functions associated to non-ordinary modular forms.
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…
In an important paper, Zagier proved that certain half-integral weight modular forms are generating functions for traces of polynomials in the $j$-function. It turns out that Zagier's work makes it possible to algorithmically compute…
We compute the critical $L$-values of some weight 3, 4, or 5 modular forms, by transforming them into integrals of the complete elliptic integral $K$. In doing so, we prove closed form formulas for some moments of $K'^3$. Many of our…
The connection between multiple modular L-functions, as defined by Manin in [5], and modular iterated integrals was made explicit by Choie and Ihara [3] under the restrictive assumption that all modular forms involved have vanishing…
We introduce an $L$-series associated to real-analytic modular forms which transform with weight $(r,s)\in\mathbb{Z}^2$ under $\Gamma_0(N)$. These $L$-series satisfy a functional equation and converse theorem. We also discuss examples of…
Classical multiple zeta values can be viewed as iterated integrals of the differentials $\frac{dt}{t}, \frac{dt}{1-t}$ from $0$ to $1$. In this paper, we reprove Brown's theorem: For $a_i, b_i, c_{ij}\in \mathbb{Z}$, the iterated integral…
In this note we evaluate multiple integrals that play a crucial role in the theory of irrationality of zeta function
We prove an equivariant version of Beilinson's conjecture on non-critical $L$-values of strongly modular abelian varieties over number fields. As an application, we prove a weak version of Zagier's conjecture on $L(E,2)$ and Deninger's…
We show that there is a relationship between modular forms and totally odd multiple zeta values, by relating the matrix $E_{N,r}$, whose entries are given by the polynomial representations of the Ihara action, with even period polynomials.…
