Multiple zeta values (MZVs) with certain repeated arguments or certain sums of cyclically generated MZVs are evaluated as rational multiple of powers of $\pi^2$. In this paper, we give a short and simple proof of the remarkable evaluations…
Let $r\ge 1$ be an integer. For any multiple index $\mathbf{s}=(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r) \in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}^r$ with $s_r>1$, the multiple zeta value (MZV for short) is defined by \begin{align*} \zeta(s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_r):=\sum_{1\leq…

The sum formula for multiple zeta values are derived, via the Mellin transform, from the Euler connection formula and the Landen connection formula for polylogarithms. These connection formulas for multiple polylogarithms will be considered…
We obtain a new proof of Hurwitz's formula for the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s, a)$ beginning with Hermite's formula. The aim is to reveal a nice connection between $\zeta(s, a)$ and a special case of the Lommel function $S_{\mu,…
According to Hoffman's (2,3)-conjecture, the so-called double shuffle relations should imply that every multiple zeta value should express effectively in terms of multizetas whose entries are equal to either 2 or 3, with some explicitly…
In this note, we use the method of [3] to give a simple proof of famous Witten conjecture. Combining the coefficients derived in our note and this method, we can derive more recursion formulas of Hodge integrals.
Mock modular forms have their origins in Ramanujan's pioneering work on mock theta functions. In a 1975 paper, Zagier proved certain transformation properties of the generating function of the Hurwitz class numbers $H(n)$ for the…
Ohno's relation is a generalization of both the sum formula and the duality formula for multiple zeta values. Oyama gave a similar relation for finite multiple zeta values, defined by Kaneko and Zagier. In this paper, we prove relations of…
We define finite multiple zeta values (FMZVs) associated with some combinatorial objects, which we call 2-colored rooted trees, and prove that FMZVs associated with 2-colored rooted trees satisfying certain mild assumptions can be written…
In this article, we express solutions of the Gauss hypergeometric equation as a series of the multiple polylogarithms by using iterated integral. This representation is the most simple case of a semisimple representation of solutions of the…
In this manuscript, the authors derive closed formula for definite integrals of combinations of powers and logarithmic functions of complicated arguments and express these integrals in terms of the Hurwitz zeta. These derivations are then…
We study a variant of multiple zeta values of level 2, which forms a subspace of the space of alternating multiple zeta values. This variant, which is regarded as the `shuffle counterpart' of Hoffman's `odd variant', exhibits nice…
It's well known that multiple polylogarithms give rise to good unipotent variations of mixed Hodge-Tate structures. In this paper we shall {\em explicitly} determine these structures related to multiple logarithms and some other multiple…
This study presents explicit evaluations of the series \begin{equation*} \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{H_{k/n}^{(p)}}{k^q} \quad \text{and} \quad \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^k H_{k/2n}^{(p)}}{k^q}, \quad p,q,n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1},\; q \ne 1,…
For k <= n, let E(2n,k) be the sum of all multiple zeta values with even arguments whose weight is 2n and whose depth is k. Of course E(2n,1) is the value of the Riemann zeta function at 2n, and it is well known that E(2n,2) = (3/4)E(2n,1).…
In this paper we shall develop a theory of (extended) double shuffle relations of Euler sums which generalizes that of multiple zeta values (see Ihara, Kaneko and Zagier, \emph{Derivation and double shuffle relations for multiple zeta…
