The $t$-adic symmetric multiple zeta value is a generalization of the symmetric multiple zeta value from the perspective of the Kaneko-Zagier conjecture. In this paper, we introduce a further generalization with a new parameter $s$, which…

In this paper, we study specific families of multiple zeta values which closely relate to the linear part of Kawashima's relation. We obtain an explicit basis of these families, and investigate their interpolations to complex functions. As…

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.

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 the study on multiple zeta values, the duality formula is one of the families of basic relations and plays an important role in the investigation of algebraic structure of the space spanned by all multiple zeta values along with the…
