On a Reciprocity Law for Finite Multiple Zeta Values
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. It was shown in [7, 9] that harmonic numbers satisfy certain reciprocity relations, which are in particular useful for the analysis of the quickselect algorithm. The aim of this work is to show that a reciprocity relation from [7, 9] can be generalized to finite variants of multiple zeta values, involving a finite variant of the shuffle identity for multiple zeta values. We present the generalized reciprocity relation and furthermore a simple elementary proof of the shuffle identity using only partial fraction decomposition. We also present an extension of the reciprocity relation to weighted sums.

Let K be an imaginary quadratic field of class number 1 and let E be an elliptic curve over K with complex multiplication in the ring of integers OK of K. Let ψ be the Grössencharacter of K associated to E and let p be an odd prime over which E has good reduction. In [Kato93], K. Kato defined the zeta element which is, roughly speaking, a compatible system in the Galois cohomology of abelian ex...
متن کاملZeta functions for two-dimensional shifts of finite type
This work is concerned with zeta functions of two-dimensional shifts of finite type. A two-dimensional zeta function ζ0(s) which generalizes the Artin-Mazur zeta function was given by Lind for Z2-action φ. The n-th order zeta function ζn of φ on Zn×∞, n ≥ 1, is studied first. The trace operator Tn which is the transition matrix for x-periodic patterns of period n with height 2 is rotationally s...

In this paper we shall prove that every Witten multiple zeta value of weight w > 3 attached to sl(4) at nonnegative integer arguments is a finite Q-linear combination of MZVs of weight w and depth three or less, except for the nine irregular cases where the Riemann zeta value ζ(w − 2) and the double zeta values of weight w − 1 and depth < 3 are also needed.

متن کاملThe Probabilistic Zeta Function
This paper is a summary of results on the PG(s) function, which is the reciprocal of the probabilistic zeta function for finite groups. This function gives the probability that s randomly chosen elements generate a group G, and information about the structure of the group G is embedded in it.
