Extending Eulerian polynomials and Faulhaber's formula 1, we study several combi-natorial aspects of harmonic sums and polylogarithms at non-positive multi-indices as well as their structure. Our techniques are based on the combinatorics of…
The harmonic polylogarithms (hpl's) are introduced. They are a generalization of Nielsen's polylogarithms, satisfying a product algebra (the product of two hpl's is in turn a combination of hpl's) and forming a set closed under the…
In this paper, by using the method of Contour Integral Representations and the Theorem of Residues and integral representations of series, we discuss the analytic representa- tions of parametric Euler sums that involve harmonic numbers…
We prove the \emph{sum of squared logarithms inequality} (SSLI) which states that for nonnegative vectors $x, y \in \mathbb{R}^n$ whose elementary symmetric polynomials satisfy $e_k(x)\le e_k(y)$ (for $1\le k < n$) and $e_n(x)=e_n(y)$, the…
We prove a new class of relations among multiple zeta values (MZV's) which contains Ohno's relation. We also give the formula for the maximal number of independent MZV's of fixed weight, under our new relations. To derive our formula for…

The paper reports on a computer algebra program LSSS (Linear Selective Systems Solver) for solving linear algebraic systems with rational coefficients. The program is especially efficient for very large sparse systems that have a solution…
Five series are evaluated in terms of zeta values. Three of the series involve harmonic numbers and one involves Stirling numbers of the first kind. The evaluation of these series is reduced to the evaluation of certain integrals, including…
Considering the spin-coefficient version of the left-flat vacuum Einstein equations, all but one of the fifty equations can be explicitly integrated via the introduction of five spin-weight s=-2 complex potentials. The final equation is a…
I define multiple Watson values (MWVs) as iterated integrals, on the interval $x\in[0,1]$, of the 6 differential forms $A=d\log(x)$, $B=-d\log(1-x)$, $T=-d\log(1-z_1x)$, $U=-d\log(1-z_2x)$, $V=-d\log(1-z_3x)$ and $W=-d\log(1-z_4x)$, where…

A computation shows that there are 77 (up to scalar shifts) possible pairs of integer coefficient polynomials of degree five, having roots of unity as their roots, and satisfying the conditions of Beukers and Heckman [1], so that the…
We present algorithms to evaluate two types of multiple sums, which appear in higher-order loop computations. We consider expansions of a generalized hypergeometric-type sums, $\sum_{n_1,...,n_N} [Gamma(a1.n+c1) Gamma(a2.n}+c2) ...…
