Logarithms and t-Motivic Multiple Zeta Values
Abstract:
For each function field multiple zeta value (defined by Thakur), we construct a t-module with an attached logarithmic vector such that a specific coordinate of the logarithmic vector is a rational multiple of that multiple zeta value. We then show that the other coordinates of this logarithmic vector contain hyperderivatives of a deformation of these multiple zeta values, which we call t-motivic multiple zeta values. This allows us to give a logarithmic expression for monomials of multiple zeta values. Joint work with Chieh-Yu Chang and Yoshinori Mishiba.
