In chapter 2, we prove a result which gives the dimension of the associated depth-graded pieces of the double shuffle Lie algebra in depths 1 and 2. In chapters 3 and 4, we study geometric relations between multizeta values coming from their expression as periods on $\\mathfrak{M}_{0,n}$. The key ingredient in this study is the top dimensional de Rham cohomology of special partially compactified moduli spaces associated to multizeta values. In chapter 3, we give an explicit expression for a basis, represented by polygons, of this cohomology. In chapter 4, we generalize this method to explicitly describe the bases of the cohomology of other partially compactified moduli spaces. This thesis concludes with a result which gives a new presentation of $Pic(\\overline{\\mathfrak{M}}_{0,n})$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-11-13T18:57:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11M32", "14Q15", "68W30" ], "keywords": [ "multizeta values", "study geometric relations", "double shuffle lie algebra", "special partially compactified moduli spaces" ], "tags": [ "dissertation" ], "publication": { "journal": "Ph.D. Thesis", "year": 2009, "month": "Nov" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 125, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhDT.......343C" } } }
