Duality and (\(q\)-)multiple zeta values (Q291757): Difference between revisions

In mathematics and mathematical physics, the multiple zeta functions are know as generalizations of the Riemann zeta and the Hurwitz zeta functions. There are many methods for the construction of these functions. The multiple zeta functions are meromorphic functions. These functions interpolate special numbers and polynomials at negative integers including the Bernoulli numbers, the Euler numbers and the other special numbers. There are many applications of these function in mathematics and mathematical physics. The authors, by using bi-brackets and multiple Eisenstein series, study the multiple \(q\)-zeta brackets, which provides a \(q\)-analog of multiple zeta values possessing both shuffle as well as quasi-shuffle relations. They also study Zudilin's duality construction in the context of classical multiple zeta values as well as various \(q\)-analogs of multiple zeta values. The authors derive various identities, relations and formulas related to the \(q\)-multiple zeta functions and also multiple zeta values, \(q\)-analogues, duality, double shuffle relations. The authors also provide the derivation of a relation of order two with a Hoffman-Ohno type relation. They give relations between the Ohno-Okuda-Zudilin \(q\)-multiple zeta values and the Schlesinger-Zudilin \(q\)-multiple zeta values.
