We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…
Maximon has recently given an excellent summary of the properties of the Euler dilogarithm function and the frequently used generalizations of the dilogarithm, the most important among them being the polylogarithm function $Li_(z)$. The…
Colored multiple zeta values are special values of multiple polylogarithms evaluated at Nth roots of unity. In this paper, we define both the finite and the symmetrized versions of these values and show that they both satisfy the double…
We present some completely monotonic functions involving the$q$-polygamma functions, our result generalizes some known results.
In this paper we obtain a recursive formula for the shuffle product and apply it to derive two restricted decomposition formulas for multiple zeta values (MZVs). The first formula generalizes the decomposition formula of Euler and is…
One of the generalizations of multiple zeta values is the $q$-version, and in the case of finite sums, they may be expressed explicitly in polynomial form. Several results have been found when the powers of the factors in the denominator…

This paper develops an approach to the evaluation of quadratic Euler sums that involve harmonic numbers. The approach is based on simple integral computations of polyloga- rithms. By using the approach, we establish some relations between…
The sum formulas for multiple zeta(-star) values and symmetric multiple zeta(-star) values bear a striking resemblance. We explain the resemblance in a rather straightforward manner using an identity that involves the Schur multiple zeta…
We introduce and study a ``level two'' analogue of finite multiple zeta values. We give conjectural bases of the space of finite Euler sums as well as that of usual finite multiple zeta values in terms of these newly defined elements. A…
The shuffle algebra on positive integers encodes the usual multiple zeta values (MZVs) (with positive arguments) thanks to the representations of MZVs by iterated Chen integrals of Kontsevich. Together with the quasi-shuffle (stuffle)…
We define subvarieties of $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$ equipped with algebraic functions that are solutions to the generic double shuffle equations satisfied by multiple polylogarithms on $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$.
Extended double shuffle relations for multiple zeta values are obtained by the fact that any product of regularized multiple zeta values has two different representations, and the case of two-fold product is considered in general. In this…
Multiple harmonic sums are iterated generalizations of harmonic sums. Recently Dilcher has considered congruences involving q-analogs of these sums in depth one. In this paper we shall study the homogeneous case for arbitrary depth by using…
We introduce a class of functions which constitutes an obvious elliptic generalization of multiple polylogarithms. A subset of these functions appears naturally in the \epsilon-expansion of the imaginary part of the two-loop massive sunrise…
