Ohno's relation states that a certain sum, which we call an Ohno type sum, of multiple zeta values remains unchanged if we replace the base index by its dual index. In view of Oyama's theorem concerning Ohno type sums of finite and…
We give a new and very concise proof of the existence of a holomorphic continuation for a large class of twisted multivariable zeta functions. To do this, we use a simple method of "decalage" that avoids using an integral representation of…
We consider the problem of deducing the duality relation from the extended double shuffle relation for multiple zeta values. Especially we prove that the duality relation for double zeta values and that for the sum of multiple zeta values…
One of the most interesting formulas for multiple zeta values is the sum formula proved by Granville and Zagier independently in 1990s. Many variations and generalizations of it have been found since then. In this paper, we will provide a…
We introduce the multivariable connected sum which is a generalization of Seki-Yamamoto's connected sum and prove the fundamental identity for these sums by series manipulation. This identity yields explicit procedures for evaluating…
In this paper, we give the values of a certain kind of $q$-multiple zeta functions at roots of unity. Various multiple zeta values have been proposed and studied by many researchers, but these multiple zeta values naturally arise from…
We introduce the concept of a conical zeta value as a geometric generalization of a multiple zeta value in the context of convex cones. The quasi-shuffle and shuffle relations of multiple zeta values are generalized to open cone subdivision…
Multiple zeta values have been studied by a wide variety of methods. In this article we summarize some of the results about them that can be obtained by an algebraic approach. This involves "coding" the multiple zeta values by monomials in…
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 generalize the well-known parity theorem for multiple zeta values (MZV) to functional equations of multiple polylogarithms (MPL). This reproves the parity theorem for MZV with an additional integrality statement, and also provides parity…
It was shown in that harmonic numbers satisfy certain reciprocity relations, which are in particular useful for the analysis of the quickselect algorithm. The aim of this work is to show that a reciprocity relation from…
In this paper, we define and study a variant of multiple zeta values (MZVs) of level four, called alternating multiple mixed values or alternating multiple $M$-values (AMMVs), forming a $\Q[i]$-subspace of the colored MZVs of level four.…
We prove some weighted sum formulas for half multiple zeta values, half finite multiple zeta values, and half symmetric multiple zeta values. The key point of our proof is Dougall's identity for the generalized hypergeometric function…
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…
Following Bachmann's recent work on bi-brackets and multiple Eisenstein series, Zudilin introduced the notion of multiple q-zeta brackets, which provides a q-analog of multiple zeta values possessing both shuffle as well as quasi-shuffle…
In this paper, we study multiple zeta values (abbreviated as MZV's) over function fields in positive characteristic. Our main result is to prove Thakur's basis conjecture, which plays the analogue of Hoffman's basis conjecture for real…
Banks--Panzer--Pym have shown that the volume integrals appearing in Kontsevich's deformation quantization formula always evaluate to integer-linear combinations of multiple zeta values (MZVs). We prove a sort of converse, which they…
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 obtain a weighted sum formula of the zeta values at even arguments, and a weighted sum formula of the multiple zeta values with even arguments and its zeta-star analogue. The weight coefficients are given by (symmetric) polynomials of…
We establish finite analogues of the identities known as the Aoki-Ohno relation and the Le-Murakami relation in the theory of multiple zeta values. We use an explicit form of a generating series given by Aoki and Ohno.
