In this paper, we generalize Bernoulli-Goss polynomials, and give a criterion on the divisibility of zeta functions of cyclotomic function fields. As an application of our criterion, for a given polynomial $f(u)$, we prove that there are…
In this paper, we formally introduce the notion of Ap{\'e}ry-like sums and we show that every multiple zeta values can be expressed as a $\bf Z$-linear combination of them. We even describe a canonical way to do so. This allows us to put in…
Many $\mathbb{Q}$-linear relations exist between multiple zeta values, the most interesting of which are various weighted sum formulas. In this paper, we generalized these to Euler sums and some other variants of multiple zeta values by…
In a recent paper, A. Libgober showed that the multiplicative sequence {Q_i(c_1,...,c_i)} of Chern classes corresponding to the power series Q(z)=1/Gamma(1+z) appears in a relation between the Chern classes of certain Calabi-Yau manifolds…
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…
Z.-W. Sun introduced three kinds of numbers: \begin{align*}S_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}^2{2k\choose k}(2k+1),\qquad s_n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}^2{2k\choose k}\frac{1}{2k-1}, \end{align*} and $S_n^{+}=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose…
We prove three theorems on finite real multiple zeta values: the symmetric formula, the sum formula and the height-one duality theorem. These are analogues of their counterparts on finite multiple zeta values.
A number of the form $x(x+1)/2$ where $x$ is an integer is called a triangular number. Suppose, $N(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ and $T(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ denote the number of ways $n$ can be expressed as $\sum_{i=1}^k a_ix_i^2$ and $\sum_{i=1}^k…
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 derive modular parametrizations for certain infinite series whose summands involve central binomial coefficients and higher-order harmonic numbers. When the rates of convergence are certain rational numbers, modularity allows us to…
This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…
We find and prove relationships between Riemann zeta values and central binomial sums. We also investigate alternating binomial sums (also called Ap\'ery sums). The study of non-alternating sums leads to an investigation of different types…
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…
In this article we prove that (1-zeta+zeta^2) is a unit in the ring of integers of the cyclotomic field where zeta is a primitive n-th root of unity and n is coprime to 2 and 3. We also prove that for prime n,…
In this paper we present some new identities of hypergeometric type for multiple harmonic sums whose indices are the sequences $(\{1\}^a,c,\{1\}^b),$ $(\{2\}^a,c,\{2\}^b)$ and prove a number of congruences for these sums modulo a prime $p.$…
An identity involving symmetric sums of regularized multiple zeta-star values of harmonic type was proved by Hoffman. In this paper, we prove an identity of shuffle type. We use Bell polynomials appearing in the study of set partitions to…
Kaneko and Yamamoto introduced a convoluted variant of multiple zeta values (MVZs) around 2016. In this paper, we will first establish some explicit formulas involving these values and their alternating version by using iterated integrals,…
Recently, Z. W. Sun introduced a sequence $(S_n)_{n\geq 0}$, where $S_n=\frac{\binom{6n}{3n} \binom{3n}{n}}{2(2n+1)\binom{2n}{n}}$, and found one congruence and two convergent series on $S_n$ by {\tt{Mathematica}}. Furthermore, he proposed…
Towards confirming Sun's conjecture on the strict log-concavity of combinatorial sequence involving the n$th$ Bernoulli number, Chen, Guo and Wang proposed a conjecture about the log-concavity of the function…
In this paper we give unified formulas for the numbers of representations of positive integers as sums of four generalized $m$-gonal numbers, and as restricted sums of four squares under a linear condition, respectively. These formulas are…
