Rational linear relations of special zeta values

101 , Mathematics Research Center Building (ori. New Math. Bldg.)



In this talk, I will introduce the results in an unpublished paper joint with Jing Yu, which attempt to describe all rational linear relations of some special zeta values of a number field. We give a upper bound and a lower bound, which are close, of the dimension of the rational linear space generated by the corresponding Stickelberger elements of these special values. In the first version of our paper, the upper and lower bounds are the same because of a mistake, which were found by the joint author Jing Yu.
