Abstract: In this paper we study restricted sum formulas involving alternating Euler sums which are defined by zeta(s_1,...,s_{d};epsilon_1,...,epsilon_d)=sum_{n_1>...>n_dge 1}frac{epsilon_1^{n_1}... epsilon_{d}^{n_d}}{n_1^{s_1}... n_d^{s_d}}, for all positive integers s_1,...,s_{d} and epsilon_1=pm 1,..., epsilon_{d}=pm 1 with (s_1,epsilon_1) unequal (1,1). We call w=s_1+...+s_{d} the weight and d the depth. When epsilon_j=-1 we say the jth component is alternating. We first consider Euler sums of the following special type: xi(2s_1,...,2s_{d})=zeta(2s_1,...,2s_{d};(-1)^{s_1},...,(-1)^{s_{d}}). For dle n, let Xi(2n,d) be the sum of all xi(2s_1,..., 2s_{d}) of fixed weight 2n and depth d. We derive a formula for Xi(2n,d) using the theory of symmetric functions established by Hoffman recently. We also consider restricted sum formulas of Euler sums with fixed weight 2n, depth d and fixed number alpha of alternating components at even arguments. When alpha=1 or alpha=d we can determine precisely the restricted sum formulas. For other alpha we only treat the cases d<5 completely since the symmetric function theory becomes more and more unwieldy to work with when alpha moves closer to d/2.
