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…

Multiple zeta values (MZVs) in the usual sense are the special values of multiple variable zeta functions at positive integers. Their extensive studies are important in both mathematics and physics with broad connections and applications.…
Classical multiple zeta values can be viewed as iterated integrals of the differentials $\frac{dt}{t}, \frac{dt}{1-t}$ from $0$ to $1$. In this paper, we reprove Brown's theorem: For $a_i, b_i, c_{ij}\in \mathbb{Z}$, the iterated integral…
Two classes of relations for multiple zeta values are handled algebraically. A restricted sum formula is proved by Eie, Liaw and Ong. The derivation relation is proved by Ihara, Kaneko and Zagier. In this paper we show the latter implies…

Kawashima's relation is conjecturally one of the largest classes of relations among multiple zeta values. Gaku Kawashima introduced and studied a certain Newton series, which we call the Kawashima function, and deduced his relation by…
We introduce a new deformation of multiple zeta value (MZV). It has one parameter $\omega$ satisfying $0<\omega<2$ and recovers MZV in the limit as $\omega \to +0$. It is defined in the same algebraic framework as a $q$-analogue of multiple…
We study a refinement of the symmetric multiple zeta value, called the $t$-adic symmetric multiple zeta value, by considering its finite truncation. More precisely, two kinds of regularizations (harmonic and shuffle) give two kinds of the…
It is known that the special values of multiple zeta functions at non-positive arguments are indeterminate in most cases due to the occurrences of infinitely many singularities. In order to give a suitable rigorous meaning of the special…
Recently, Maesaka, Watanabe, and the third author discovered a phenomenon where the iterated integral expressions of multiple zeta values become discretized. In this paper, we extend their result to the case of multiple polylogarithms and…
We introduce a $q$-analog of the multiple harmonic series commonly referred to as multiple zeta values. The multiple $q$-zeta values satisfy a $q$-stuffle multiplication rule analogous to the stuffle multiplication rule arising from the…
We prove some generalizations of the sum formula for multiple zeta values by using Hiroyuki Ochiai's method of proving the sum formula.
Multiple zeta values are real numbers defined by an infinite series generalizing values of the Riemann zeta function at positive integers. Finite truncations of this series are called multiple harmonic sums and are known to have interesting…
We prove a new linear relation for a q-analogue of multiple zeta values. It is a q-extension of the restricted sum formula obtained by Eie, Liaw and Ong for multiple zeta values.
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…
The cyclic sum formulas for multiple zeta and zeta-star values were respectively proved by Hoffman and Ohno, and Ohno and Wakabayashi. Kawasaki and Oyama obtained an analogous formulas for finite multiple zeta and zeta-star values. In this…
Interpolated multiple $q$-zeta values are deformation of multiple $q$-zeta values with one parameter, $t$, and restore classical multiple zeta values as $t = 0$ and $q \to 1$. In this paper, we discuss generating functions for sum of…
