We give some results and conjectures about recurrence relations for certain sequences of binomial sums.

In this paper, we establish an identity for Bernoulli's generalized polynomials. We deduce generalizations for many relations involving classical Bernoulli numbers or polynomials. In particular, we generalize a recent Gessel identity.

We give two general transformations that allows certain quite general basic hypergeometric multi-sums of arbitrary depth (sums that involve an arbitrary sequence $\{g(k)\}$), to be reduced to an infinite $q$-product times a single basic…

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

We introduce an algebraic formulation of cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta values and for multiple zeta-star values. We also present an algebraic proof of cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta values and for multiple zeta-star values by…

Ohno's relation is a well-known relation on the field of the multiple zeta values and has an interpolation to complex function. In this paper, we call its complex function Ohno function and study it. We consider the region of absolute…

Ohno-Wakabayashi's cyclic sum formula for multiple zeta-star values is generalized by Igarashi with one or two parameters. In this article, we give a possible answer for one of his problems about a generalization with three parameters.

We first review our previous works of Arakawa and the authors on two, closely related single-variable zeta functions. Their special values at positive and negative integer arguments are respectively multiple zeta values and poly-Bernoulli…

We consider the exactly solvable quantum mechanical systems whose eigenfunctions are described by the multi-indexed orthogonal polynomials of Laguerre, Jacobi, Wilson and Askey-Wilson types. Corresponding to the recurrence relations with…

We start by an original investigation on subgroups of (even infinite) direct sums in the first 4 sections, that largely generalizes Remak's known theorem; inspired by that general picture we have elsewhere extended this elementary "virtual"…

We give a finite analogue of the well-known formula $\mathrm{Li}_{\underbrace{1, \ldots, 1}_n}(t) = \frac{1}{n!}\mathrm{Li}_1(t)^n$ of multiple polylogarithms for any positive integer n by using the shuffle relation of finite multiple…

We prove the cyclic sum formulas for certain two-parameter multiple series. These are new and non-trivial generalizations of the cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta values and multiple zeta-star values.

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 selfadjoint functors acting on categories of finite dimensional modules over finite dimensional algebras with an emphasis on functors satisfying some polynomial relations. Selfadjoint functors satisfying several easy relations, in…

From an identity connecting a combinatorial sum and Legendre polynomials, we derive closed forms for a number of combinatorial sums. Some of them are obtained via results about the integrals of functions associated with Legendre…

We prove a kind of integral expressions for finite multiple harmonic sums and multiple zeta-star values. Moreover, we introduce a class of multiple integrals, associated with some combinatorial data (called 2-labeled posets). This class…
