We obtain a class of quadratic relations for a q-analogue of multiple zeta values (qMZV's). In the limit q->1, it turns into Kawashima's relation for multiple zeta values. As a corollary we find that qMZV's satisfy the linear relation…
The set of multiple zeta-star values is a countable dense subset of the half line $(1,+\infty)$. In this paper, we establish some classical Diophantine type results for the set of multiple zeta-star values. Firstly, we give a criterion to…
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…
We prove several results on the distribution function of $\zeta(1+it)$ in the complex plane, that is the joint distribution function of $\arg\zeta(1+it)$ and $|\zeta(1+it)|$. Similar results are also given for $L(1,\chi)$ (as $\chi$ varies…
In this paper, we present some identities for multiple zeta-star values with indices obtained by inserting 3 or 1 into the string 2,...,2. Our identities give analogues of Zagier's evaluation of \zeta(2,...,2,3,2,..., 2) and examples of a…
The sum formula for finite and symmetric multiple zeta values, established by Wakabayashi and the authors, implies that if the weight and depth are fixed and the specified component is required to be more than one, then the values sum up to…
We consider a cyclic analogue of multiple zeta values (CMZVs), which has two kinds of expressions; series and integral expression. We prove an `integral$=$series' type identity for CMZVs. By using this identity, we construct two classes of…
We present the most general at this moment results on the discrete mixed joint value-distribution and the universality property for the class of Matsumoto zeta-functions and periodic Hurwitz zeta-functions under certain linear independence…
In this short manuscript, we will put some light on the different outcomes when two non-constant meromorphic functions share a value with prescribed weight two.
We give an evaluation for the stuffle-regularised $t^{\ast,V}(\{2\}^a,1,\{2\}^b)$ as a polynomial in single-zeta values, $\log(2)$ and $V$. We then apply this to establish some linear independence results of certain sets of motivic multiple…
In this paper, we investigate the sums of mutliple zeta(-star) values of height one: $Z_{\pm}(n)=\sum_{a+b=n} (\pm 1)^b\zeta(\{1\}^a,b+2)$, $Z_{\pm}^{\star}(n)=\sum_{a+b=n} (\pm 1)^b\zeta^{\star}(\{1\}^a,b+2)$. In particular, we prove that…
We survey various results and conjectures concerning multiple polylogarithms and the multiple zeta function. Among the results, we announce our resolution of several conjectures on multiple zeta values. We also provide a new integral…
In this article, we present a new linear independence criterion for values of the $p$-adic polygamma functions defined by J.~Diamond. As an application, we obtain the linear independence of some families of values of the $p$-adic Hurwitz…
There has been an avalanche of recent research on multiple zeta values. We propose dividing identities for multiple zeta values into structural and specific types. Structural identities are valid for any generalized multiple zeta function,…
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…
We present a new "integral=series" type identity of multiple zeta values, and show that this is equivalent in a suitable sense to the fundamental theorem of regularization. We conjecture that this identity is enough to describe all linear…
In this paper, we give a purely algebraic proof of an identity coming directly from Euler's reflection formula for the gamma function. Our proof uses Hoffman's harmonic algebra and some binomial identities.
We solve an interpolation problem for computing $\zeta(2n)$ in a rather elementary way, by generalizing the main idea in \cite{SE}.
We first review our previous works of Arakawa and the authors on two, closely related single-variable zeta functions. Their special values at positive and negative integer arguments are respectively multiple zeta values and poly-Bernoulli…
We introduce an atomic formula intuitively saying that given variables are independent from given other variables if a third set of variables is kept constant. We contrast this with dependence logic. We show that our independence atom gives…
