In this paper, we study the linear independence of special values, including the positive characteristic analogue of multizeta values, alternating multizeta values and multiple polylogarithms, at algebraic points. Consequently, we establish…
In this paper, we employ the theories and techniques of hypergeometric functions to provide two distinct proofs of the conjectured identities involving multiple Ap\'ery-like series with central binomial coefficients and multiple harmonic…
The theoretical computing of special values assumed by the hypergeometric functions has a high interest not only on its own, but also in sight of the remarkable implications to both pure Mathematics and Mathematical Physics. Accordingly, in…
In this paper we give new identities involving q-Euler polynomials of higher order.
A special singular limit $\omega_1/\omega_2\to 1$ is considered for the Faddeev modular quantum dilogarithm (hyperbolic gamma function) and the corresponding hyperbolic integrals. It brings a new class of hypergeometric identities…
We deduce new q-series identities by applying inverse relations to certain identities for basic hypergeometric series. The identities obtained themselves do not belong to the hierarchy of basic hypergeometric series. We extend two of our…
We give a new theta-function identity, a special case of which is utilised to prove Kawanaka's Macdonald polynomial conjecture. The theta-function identity further yields a transformation formula for multivariable elliptic hypergeometric…
Through a systematic approach on generating Wilf-Zeilberger-pairs, we prove some hypergeometric identities conjectures due to Z.W. Sun, J. Guillera and Y. Zhao etc., including two Ramanujan-$1/\pi^4$, one $1/\pi^3$ formulas as well as a…
We give a proof of double shuffle relations for $p$-adic multiple zeta values by developing higher dimensional version of tangential base points and discussing a relationship with two (and one) variable $p$-adic multiple polylogarithms.
We investigate the arithmetic of special values of a new class of $L$-functions recently introduced by the second author. We prove that these special values are encoded in some particular polynomials which we call Anderson-Stark units. We…
Motivated by the works of Andrews-Merca and Guo-Zeng, we establish some truncated identities of Gauss by using some summation formulas from the works of Zhi-Guo Liu. These give three new expansions for partial sums of Gauss' triangular…
Two exact evaluation formulae for multiple rarefied elliptic beta integrals related to the simplest lens space are proved. They generalize evaluations of the type I and II elliptic beta integrals attached to the root system $C_n$. In a…

We show how infinite series of a certain type involving generalized harmonic numbers can be computed using a knowledge of symmetric functions and multiple zeta values. In particular, we prove and generalize some identities recently…
A new multiple-integral representation of a general family of very-well-poised hypergeometric series is proved. Inspite of an analytic character of the result, it is motivated by the recent arithmetic progress for the values of the Riemann…
We describe a systematic search for all strange hypergeometric identities up to a certain complexity with sheer brute force that lead us to the discovery of two new infinite families of closed-form evaluations.
We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…
In this article we prove a new elliptic hypergeometric integral identity. It previously appeared (as a conjecture) in articles by Rains, and Spiridonov and Vartanov. Moreover it gives a different proof of an identity in another article by…
We obtain some Bailey pairs associated with indefinite quadratic forms with the $\beta_n$ connected to a finite sum. A new general identity is given, which provides identities for $q$-hypergeometric series, including mock theta functions.
