We analyse a certain family of cellular integrals, which are period integrals on the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{0,8}$ of curves of genus zero with eight marked points, and give rise to simultaneous rational approximations to $\zeta(3)$ and…
The algebra of big zeta values we introduce in this paper is an intermediate object between multiple zeta values and periods of the multiple zeta motive. It consists of number series generalizing multiple zeta values, the simplest examples,…
Recently, Zagier expressed an interpolated version of the Ap\'ery numbers for $\zeta(3)$ in terms of a critical $L$-value of a modular form of weight 4. We extend this evaluation in two directions. We first prove that interpolations of…
We describe iterated integrals as unipotent periods on families of marked elliptic curves in terms of multiple zeta values and elliptic multiple zeta values.
We prove or conjecture several relations between the multizeta values for positive genus function fields of class number one, focusing on the zeta-like values, namely those whose ratio with the zeta value of the same weight is rational (or…
In this paper, we introduce cell-forms on $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$, which are top-dimensional differential forms diverging along the boundary of exactly one cell (connected component) of the real moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}(\mathbb{R})$. We…
We consider the cell decomposition of the moduli space of real genus two curves with a marked point on the only real oval. The cells are enumerated by certain graphs with their weights describing the complex structure on a curve. We show…
Using a polylogarithmic identity, we express the values of $\zeta$ at odd integers $2n+1$ as integrals over unit $n-$dimensional hypercubes of simple functions involving products of logarithms. We also prove a useful property of those…
It is well-known that the Ap\'ery sequences which arise in the irrationality proofs for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ satisfy many intriguing arithmetic properties and are related to the $p$th Fourier coefficients of modular forms. In this…
We show that there is a relationship between modular forms and totally odd multiple zeta values, by relating the matrix $E_{N,r}$, whose entries are given by the polynomial representations of the Ihara action, with even period polynomials.…
A simple geometric construction on the moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$ of curves of genus $0$ with $n$ ordered marked points is described which gives a common framework for many irrationality proofs for zeta values. This construction…
Multiple zeta values (MZVs for short) can be represented as iterated integrals of $\mathbb{Q}$-rational algebraic differential forms on $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})\setminus\{0, 1, \infty\}$. This interpretation allows us to consider MZVs…
We interpret the "explicit formulas" in the sense of analytic number theory for the zeta function of an elliptic curve over a finite field as a transversal index theorem on a 3-dimensional laminated space.
We study triple zeta values of even weight and show various connections with period polynomials. As a result, an (expected) upper bound of the dimension of the vector space spanned by certain triple zeta values is obtained.
The paper deals with a class of periods, Frobenius constants, which describe monodromy of Frobenius solutions of differential equations arising in algebraic geometry. We represent Frobenius constants related to families of elliptic curves…
We study a family of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb{Z}$ whose periods are linear forms in the zeta values $\zeta(n)$. They naturally include the Beukers-Rhin-Viola integrals for $\zeta(2)$ and the Ball-Rivoal linear forms in odd zeta…
We introduce a family of linear relations between cell-zeta values that have a form similar to product map relations and jointly with them imply stuffle relations between multiple zeta values.
By introducing a generalized notion of multiple zeta values associated with an arbitrary finite subset $S\subset \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ and studying their transformation properties under rational functions, we show that multiple…
We study the depth filtration on multiple zeta values, the motivic Galois group of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb{Z}$ and the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group, and its relation to modular forms. Using period polynomials for cusp forms for…
We show that, in a highest weight category with duality, the endomorphism algebra of a tilting object is naturally a cellular algebra. Our proof generalizes a recent construction of Andersen, Stroppel, and Tubbenhauer. This result raises…
