We develop a new approach to the study of the functional equations satisfied by classical polylogarithms, inspired by Goncharov's conjectures. We prove a sharpened version of Zagier's criterion for such an equation and explain, how our…
We give the first genuine 2-variable functional equation for the 7--logarithm. We investigate and relate identities for the 3-logarithm given by Goncharov and Wojtkowiak and deduce a certain family of functional equations for the…
We clarify the relationship between different multiple polylogarithms in weight~4 by writing suitable linear combinations of a given type of iterated integral I_{n_1,...,n_d}(z_1,...,z_d), in depth d>1 and weight \sum_i n_i=4 in terms of…
We express a general multiple polylogarithm of weight n as an explicit linear combination of multiple polylogarithms of weight n in n-2 variables. We express a general multiple polylogarithm of weight 4 as an explicit linear combination of…
We prove that the weight 6, depth 3, multiple polylogarithm $ \mathrm{Li}_{4,1,1}((xyz)^{-1}, x, y) $, or rather its more natural `divergent' incarnation $ \mathrm{Li}_{3;1,1,1}(x,y,z) $, satisfies the 6-fold anharmonic symmetries of the…
An arbitrary-depth reduction theorem for the `convolution' multiple L-values of Euler-Zagier type is proven by an analytic method. To this end, generalized polylogarithms associated to Dirichlet characters are defined. The proof uses the…
We prove the surjectivity part of Goncharov's depth conjecture. We also show that the depth conjecture implies that multiple polylogarithms of depth $d$ and weight $n$ can be expressed via a single function…
We derive new functional equations for Nielsen polylogarithms. We show that, when viewed modulo $\mathrm{Li}_5$ and products of lower weight functions, the weight $5$ Nielsen polylogarithm $S_{3,2}$ satisfies the dilogarithm five-term…
We prove a conjecture of Goncharov, which says that any multiple polylogarithm can be expressed via polylogarithms of depth at most half of the weight. We give an explicit formula for this presentation, involving a summation over trees that…
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…
We give new explicit formulas for Grassmannian and Aomoto polylogarithms in terms of iterated integrals, for arbitrary weight. We also explicitly reduce the Grassmannian polylogarithm in weight 4 and in weight 5 each to depth 2.…
We introduce a class of functions which constitutes an obvious elliptic generalization of multiple polylogarithms. A subset of these functions appears naturally in the \epsilon-expansion of the imaginary part of the two-loop massive sunrise…
A weight function which $q$-generalizes the ground state wave function of the multi-component Calogero-Sutherland quantum many body system is introduced. Conjectures, and some proofs in special cases, are given for a constant term identity…
We give expressions for all generalized polylogarithms up to weight four in terms of the functions log, $\text{Li}_n$, and $\text{Li}_{2,2}$, valid for arbitrary complex variables. Furthermore we provide algorithms for manipulation and…
This paper proves a "new" family of functional equations (Eqn) for Rogers dilogarithm. These equations rely on the combinatorics of dihedral coordinates on moduli spaces of curves of genus 0, M 0,n. For n = 4 we find back the duality…

We discuss the relationship between the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a generalized Freud weight \[w(x;t)=|x|^{2\lambda+1}\exp\left(-x^4+tx^2\right),\qquad x\in\mathbb{R},\] with parameters $\lambda>-1$…
We study the weighted partition function for lozenge tilings, with weights given by multivariate rational functions originally defined by Morales, Pak and Panova (2019) in the context of the factorial Schur functions. We prove that this…
We present a new systematic method for evaluating generalized log-sine integrals in terms of polylogarithms. Our approach is based on an identity connecting ordinary generating functions of polylogarithms to integrals involving the sine…
We study a class of q-analogues of multiple zeta values given by certain formal q-series with rational coefficients. After introducing a notion of weight and depth for these q-analogues of multiple zeta values we present dimension…
