Multiple $T$-values, a variant of multiple zeta values of level two, were introduced and studied by Kaneko and Tsumura. This paper will introduce iterated log-tangent integrals and discuss their relations with multiple $T$-values. We will…
There are three kinds of multiple polylogarithms; complex, finite and symmetric. The dualities for the complex and finite cases are known. In this paper, we present proofs of them via iterated integrals and its symmetric counterpart by a…
In this paper we first establish several integral identities. These integrals are of the form \[\int_0^1 x^{an+b} f(x)\,dx\quad (a\in\{1,2\},\ b\in\{-1,-2\})\] where $f(x)$ is a single-variable multiple polylogarithm function or…

Let $T$ be the triangle with vertices (1,0), (0,1), (1,1). We study certain integrals over $T$, one of which was computed by Euler. We give expressions for them both as a linear combination of multiple zeta values, and as a polynomial in…
The special values of multiple polylogarithms, which including multiple zeta values, appear some fields of mathematics and physics. Many kinds of their linear relations are investigated as well as their algebraic relations. From the…
We show that the duality relation for the sum of multiple zeta values with fixed weight, depth and $k_1$ is deduced from the derivation relations, which was first conjectured by N. Kawasaki and T. Tanaka.
The cyclic relation obtained in a study by Hirose, Murakami, and the first-named author, is a wide class of relations, which includes the well-known cyclic sum formula for multiple zeta and zeta-star values, and the derivation relation for…
The sum formula for finite and symmetric multiple zeta values, established by Wakabayashi and the authors, implies that if the weight and depth are fixed and the specified component is required to be more than one, then the values sum up to…
In this paper we give two idelic representations of the multiple zeta values - one using iterated integrals over the finite ideles and the other using iterated integrals over the idele class group. Each of the representations leads to a…
We prove that every multiple zeta value is a $\mathbb{Z}$-linear combination of $\zeta(k_1,\dots, k_r)$ where $k_i\geq 2$. Our proof also yields an explicit algorithm for such an expansion. The key ingredient is to introduce modified…
