In 2008, Muneta found explicit evaluation of the multiple zeta star value $\zeta^\star(\{3, 1\}^d)$, and in 2013, Yamamoto proved a sum formula for multiple zeta star values on 3-2-1 indices. In this paper, we provide another way of…

In this article, we prove the integrality of $v$-adic multiple zeta values (MZVs). For any index $\mathfrak{s}\in\mathbb{N}^r$ and finite place $v\in A:=\mathbb{F}_q[\theta]$, Chang and Mishiba introduced the notion of the $v$-adic MZVs…
