In this article, we introduce an algebraic setup of non-strict multiple zeta values (NMZVs, for short) and prove some relations of NMZVs, which are analogous to Hoffman's relations of multiple zeta values, by using this algebraic setup of…

We prove two conjectures on the spaces generated by multiple $q$-zeta values. More precisely, we show that the spaces $Z_q^{\mathrm{o}}$ and $Z_{q,1}^{\mathrm{o}}$ already generate the larger spaces $Z_q$ and $Z_{q,1}$, respectively. Our…

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…

Multiple zeta values arise as special values of polylogarithms defined on Riemann surfaces of various genera. Building on the vast knowledge for classical and elliptic multiple zeta values, we explore a canonical extension of the formalism…

This doctoral thesis studies the overlap between two well-known collections of results in number theory: the theory of periods and period polynomials of modular forms as developed by Eichler, Shimura and Manin and its extensions by K\"ohnen…

This survey article is the written version of two talks given at the Journ\'ees X-UPS 2019 "P\'eriodes et transcendance" at \'Ecole polytechnique. We give a gentle introduction to the study of multiple zeta values, from Euler's solution to…

This note is a compilation of related research on modular relations for multiple zeta values. Roughly speaking, modular relations are (homogeneous) linear relations of multiple zeta values of fixed weight whose coefficients are `originated'…

The derivation relation is a well known relation among multiple zeta values, which was first obtained by Ihara, Kaneko and Zagier. The analogous formula for finite multiple zeta values, which we call the derivation relation for finite…

We study multiple zeta values (MZVs) from the viewpoint of zeta-functions associated with the root systems which we have studied in our previous papers. In fact, the $r$-ple zeta-functions of Euler-Zagier type can be regarded as the…

We analyze certain characters of vertex algebras that can be expressed using (generalized) q-MZVs. We consider: (i) characters of vertex algebras associated to arc spaces, (ii) characters (or indices) of $\mathcal{S}$-class vertex operator…

In [Ok] Okounkov studies a specific $q$-analogue of multiple zeta values and makes some conjectures on their algebraic structure. In this note we compare Okounkovs $q$-analogues to the generating function for multiple divisor sums defined…

In this paper we present some new identities for multiple polylogarithms (abbr. MPLs) and multiple harmonic star sums (abbr. MHSSs) by using the methods of iterated integral computations of logarithm functions. Then, by applying these…

We give an explicit representation for the sums of multiple zeta-star values of fixed weight and height in terms of Riemann zeta values.

In this paper, we study multiple zeta values (abbreviated as MZV's) over function fields in positive characteristic. Our main result is to prove Thakur's basis conjecture, which plays the analogue of Hoffman's basis conjecture for real…

Multiple zeta values (MZVs) are under intense investigation in three arenas -- knot theory, number theory, and quantum field theory -- which unite in Kreimer's proposal that field theory assigns MZVs to positive knots, via Feynman diagrams…

Bachmann proves an identity expressing the generating series of MacMahon's generalized sum-of-divisors $q$-series in terms of Eisenstein series. MacMahon's $q$-series can be regarded as a $q$-analogue of the multiple zeta value $\zeta(2, 2,…

We construct a family of $q$-series with rational coefficients satisfying a variant of the extended double shuffle equations, which are a lift of a given $\mathbb{Q}$-valued solution of the extended double shuffle equations. These…

Multiples zeta values and alternating multiple zeta values in positive characteristic were introduced by Thakur and Harada as analogues of classical multiple zeta values of Euler and Euler sums. In this paper we determine all linear…

We study a polynomial interpolation of finite multiple zeta and zeta-star values with variable $t$, which is an analogue of interpolated multiple zeta values introduced by Yamamoto. We introduce several relations among them and, in…

We study some classical identities for multiple zeta values and show that they still hold for zeta functions built on the zeros of an arbitrary function. We introduce the complementary zeta function of a system, which naturally occurs when…
