Use of the generating function to generalize the sum formula for quadruple zeta values (1503.01194v3)
Published 4 Mar 2015 in math.NT
Abstract: In the present paper, we prove an identity for the generating function of the quadruple zeta values. Taking homogeneous parts on both sides of the identity and substituting appropriate values for the variables, we obtain the sum formula for quadruple zeta values. We also obtain its weighted analogues, which include the formulas for this case proved by Guo and Xie (2009, J. Number Theory 129, 2747--2765) and by Ong, Eie, and Liaw (2013, Int. J. Number Theory 9, 1185--1198).
