In this note, we extend the definition of multiple harmonic sums and apply their stuffle relations to obtain explicit evaluations of the sums $R_n(p,t)=\sum\nolimits_{m=0}^n m^p H_m^t$, where $H_m$ are harmonic numbers. When $t\le 4$ these…

In this article we present the hexagon equations for dilogarithms which come from the analytic continuation of the dilogarithm $\mathrm{Li}_2(z)$ to ${\mathbf P}^1 \setminus {0,1,\infty}$. The hexagon equations are equivalent to the…

The theory of polynomials orthogonal with respect to one inner product is classical. We discuss the extension of this theory to multiple inner products. Examples include the Lam\'e and Heine-Stieltjes polynomials.

We consider nested sums involving the Pochhammer symbol at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi,$ $\log(2)$ or zeta values. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as…

In a previous work (arXiv:2505.05574), a summation formula for harmonic Maass forms of polynomial growth was established. In this note, we use the theory of $L$-series of harmonic Maass forms to state and prove a summation formula for such…
