In this article we shall survey some recent progress on the study of Ap\'ery-like sums which are multiple variable generalizations of the two sums Ap\'ery used in his famous proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$. We only…
Let $A_1,A_2,...,A_n$ be the vertices of a polygon with unit perimeter, that is $\sum_{i=1}^n |A_i A_{i+1}|=1$. We derive various tight estimates on the minimum and maximum values of the sum of pairwise distances, and respectively sum of…
In this paper, we study sum formulas for Schur multiple zeta values and give a generalization of the sum formulas for multiple zeta(-star) values. We show that for ribbons of certain types, the sum over all admissible Young tableaux of this…

In this article, we study the analytic properties of the multiple polylogarithms in the $s$-aspect. Although the domain of absolute convergence of the series defining the multiple polylogarithms is well-known, the study towards a larger…
We establish some identities of Euler related sums. By using these identities, we discuss the closed form representations of sums of harmonic numbers and reciprocal parametric binomial coefficients through parametric harmonic numbers,…
We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…
Borwein and Broadhurst, using experimental-mathematics techniques, in 1998 identified numerous hyperbolic 3-manifolds whose volumes are rationally related to values of various Dirichlet L series $\textup{L}_{d}(s)$. In particular, in the…
In 1978, Apery has given sequences of rational approximations to $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ yielding the irrationality of each of these numbers. One of the key ingredient of Apery's proof are second-order difference equations with polynomial…
Irreducibility results for parabolic induction of representations of the general linear group over a local non-archimedean field can be formulated in terms of Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials of type $A$. Spurred by these results and some…
A new multiple-integral representation of a general family of very-well-poised hypergeometric series is proved. Inspite of an analytic character of the result, it is motivated by the recent arithmetic progress for the values of the Riemann…
The sum formula is a well known relation in the field of the multiple zeta values. In this paper, we present its generalization for the Euler-Zagier multiple zeta function.
The monodromy conjecture is an umbrella term for several conjectured relationships between poles of zeta functions, monodromy eigenvalues and roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials in arithmetic geometry and singularity theory. Even the…
Symbolic computation techniques are used to derive some closed form expressions for an analytic continuation of the Euler-Zagier zeta function evaluated at the negative integers as recently proposed by B. Sadaoui. This approach allows to…
In this paper, we consider a discrete version of iterated integrals by the naive (equally divided) Riemann sum. In particular, basic three formulas for usual iterated integrals are discritized. Moreover, we proved cyclic sum formulas for…
We study analytic properties of the pair consisting of a rather general form of zeta-function with an Euler product and a periodic Hurwitz zeta-function with a transcendental parameter. We first survey briefly previous results, and then…
The Kaneko--Zagier conjecture describes a correspondence between finite multiple zeta values and symmetric multiple zeta values. Its refined version has been established by Jarossay, Rosen and Ono--Seki--Yamamoto. In this paper, we…
We give explicit evaluations of the linear and non-linear Euler sums of hyperharmonic numbers $h_{n}^{\left( r\right) }$ with reciprocal binomial coefficients. These evaluations enable us to extend closed form formula of Euler sums of…
In this paper, we give elementary proofs of Zagier's formula for multiple zeta values involving Hoffman element and its odd variant due to Murakami. Zagier's formula was a key ingredient in the proof of Hoffman's conjecture. Moreover, using…
By a new orthogonal direct sum decomposition $E_{M} = Y \oplus Z$, which $Z$ is related to $\Delta u_i(i=1,2,3,....,M)$, and a new functional $I(u)$, the method in [2] is improved to obtain new multiple periodic solutions with negativity…
