In this paper, we study algebraic relations over $\\bar{k}$ among the fundamental period $\\widetilde{\\pi}$ of the Carlitz module and the positive characteristic multizeta values $\\zeta(n)$ and $\\zeta(n,n)$ for an \"odd\" integer $n$, where we say that $n$ is \"odd\" if $q-1$ does not divide $n$. We prove that either they are algebraically independent over $\\bar{k}$ or satisfy some simple relation over $k$. We also prove that if $2n$ is \"odd\" then they are algebraically independent over $\\bar{k}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-07-14T11:16:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11J93", "11M38", "11G09" ], "keywords": [ "positive characteristic multizeta values", "algebraic independence", "carlitz period", "rational function field", "algebraically independent" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1307.3725M" } } }
