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.
In the process of studying a conjecture of Holly M. Green and Martin W. Liebeck, we obtain two interesting identities by elementary methods, one is a combinatorial identity, and the other is a number theoretic identity.
We develop the Denef-Loeser motivic integration to the equivariant motivic integration and use it to prove the full integral identity conjecture for regular functions.
A probability method is provided to prove three classes of combinatorial identities. The method is extremely simple, only one step after the proper probability setup.
By introducing a generalized notion of multiple zeta values associated with an arbitrary finite subset $S\subset \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ and studying their transformation properties under rational functions, we show that multiple…
I define multiple Watson values (MWVs) as iterated integrals, on the interval $x\in[0,1]$, of the 6 differential forms $A=d\log(x)$, $B=-d\log(1-x)$, $T=-d\log(1-z_1x)$, $U=-d\log(1-z_2x)$, $V=-d\log(1-z_3x)$ and $W=-d\log(1-z_4x)$, where…
We prove that every multiple zeta value is a $\mathbb{Z}$-linear combination of $\zeta(k_1,\dots, k_r)$ where $k_i\geq 2$. Our proof also yields an explicit algorithm for such an expansion. The key ingredient is to introduce modified…
A combinatorial identity that was needed in Ahlgren and Ono's proof of a certain congruence conjecture of Frits Beukers is stated, and a pointer to its WZ proof is given.
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…
We review motivic aspects of multiple zeta values, and as an application, we give an exact-numerical algorithm to decompose any (motivic) multiple zeta value of given weight into a chosen basis up to that weight.
We introduce an iterated integral version of (generalized) log-sine integrals (iterated log-sine integrals) and prove a relation between a multiple polylogarithm and iterated log-sine integrals. We also give a new method for obtaining…
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…
We present an improved incremental selection algorithm of the selection algorithm presented in [1] and prove all the selected conjectures.
A simple heuristic proof of an integral identity recently derived (Glasser ML 2011 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 44 225202) is presented.
Multiple zeta values (MZVs, also called Euler sums or multiple harmonic series) are nested generalizations of the classical Riemann zeta function evaluated at integer values. The fact that an integral representation of MZVs obeys a shuffle…
In this note, we use the method of [3] to give a simple proof of famous Witten conjecture. Combining the coefficients derived in our note and this method, we can derive more recursion formulas of Hodge integrals.
Recently, it is well known that the conjectural integral identity is of crucial importance in the motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants theory for non-commutative Calabi-Yau threefolds. The purpose of this article is to consider different…
It is known that multiple zeta values can be written in terms of certain iterated log-sine integrals. Conversely, we evaluate iterated log-sine integrals in terms of multiple polylogarithms and multiple zeta values in this paper. We also…
We prove an interesting identity for the sum of determinants, which is a generalization of the sum of a geometric progression. The proof is quite long and a number of other identities are proved along the way. Some of the more elementary…
In this note we introduce multi-interpolated multiple zeta values. We provide a basic decomposition of these objects involving ordered partitions. We also obtain identities for special instances of multi-interpolated multiple zeta values…
