Generalized multiple zeta values over number fields I

Abstract: Inspired by the theory of Hodge correlators due to Goncharov and by the plectic principle of Nekov\'a\v{r} and Scholl, we construct higher plectic Green functions and give a higher order generalization of Hecke's formula for abelian $L$-functions over arbitrary number fields. We hence provide a potential method to generalize multiple zeta values over number fields. We recover classical multiple zeta values and multiple polylogrithms evaluated at roots of unity, when the number field in consideration is the rational field $\mathbb{Q}$.
