In this paper we consider iterated integrals of multiple polylogarithm functions and prove some explicit relations of multiple polylogarithm functions. Then we apply the relations obtained to find numerous formulas of alternating multiple…

Historically, the polylogarithm has attracted specialists and non-specialists alike with its lovely evaluations. Much the same can be said for Euler sums (or multiple harmonic sums), which, within the past decade, have arisen in…

We construct an analytic approach to evaluate odd Euler sums, multiple zeta value $\zeta(3,2,\ldots,2)$ and multiple $t$-value $t\left(3,2,\ldots,2\right)$. Moreover, we also conjecture a closed expression for multiple $t$-value…

We use visible point vector identities to examine polylogarithms in the neighbourhood of the Riemann zeta function zeroes. New formulas limiting to the trivial zeroes and to the critical line on the zeta function are given. Similar results…

An arbitrary-depth reduction theorem for the `convolution' multiple L-values of Euler-Zagier type is proven by an analytic method. To this end, generalized polylogarithms associated to Dirichlet characters are defined. The proof uses the…

Euler sums (also called Zagier sums) occur within the context of knot theory and quantum field theory. There are various conjectures related to these sums whose incompletion is a sign that both the mathematics and physics communities do not…

We study a class of q-analogues of multiple zeta values given by certain formal q-series with rational coefficients. After introducing a notion of weight and depth for these q-analogues of multiple zeta values we present dimension…

In this paper, we study some Euler-Ap\'ery-type series which involve central binomial coefficients and (generalized) harmonic numbers. In particular, we establish elegant explicit formulas of some series by iterated integrals and…

In this paper, we formally introduce the notion of Ap{\'e}ry-like sums and we show that every multiple zeta values can be expressed as a $\bf Z$-linear combination of them. We even describe a canonical way to do so. This allows us to put in…

Flajolet and Salvy pointed out that every Euler sum is a $\mathbb{Q}$-linear combination of multiple zeta values. However, in the literature, there is no formula completely revealing this relation. In this paper, using permutations and…
