Abstract

We present the FORTRAN-code HPOLY.f for the numerical calculation of harmonic polylogarithms up to w = 8 at an absolute accuracy of 4.91015\sim 4.9 \cdot 10^{-15} or better. Using algebraic and argument relations the numerical representation can be limited to the range x[0,21]x \in [0, \sqrt{2}-1]. We provide replacement files to map all harmonic polylogarithms to a basis and the usual range of arguments x],+[x \in ]-\infty,+\infty[ to the above interval analytically. We also briefly comment on a numerical implementation of real valued cyclotomic harmonic polylogarithms.
