Multiple polylogarithm values at roots of unity

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For any positive integer N let muN be the group of the Nth roots of unity. In this note we shall study the Q-linear relations among values of multiple polylogarithms evaluated at mmuN. We show that the standard relations considered by Racinet do not provide all the possible relations in the following cases: (i) level N=4, weight w=3 or 4, and (ii) w=2, 7<N<50, and N is a power of 2 or 3, or N has at least two prime factors. We further find some (presumably all) of the missing relations in (i) by using the octahedral symmetry of P1−(0,inftycupmu4). We also prove some other results when N=p or N=p2 (p prime ge5) by using the motivic fundamental group of P1−(0,inftycupmuN).
