数理解析研究所講究録 1397 巻 2004 年 1-9 Remark on divergent multizeta series L. Boutet de Monvel There are several manners of regularizing divergent zeta series. It is useful to compare these, since they are used to describe relations among convergent zeta series. Here we compare the two main ones, related to the two shuffle products. The remark in this paper (\S 1) was described in a lecture at the CIRM, april 2000, and used e.g. by G. Racinet [13]. \S 3 gives a more formal version; in Q2 I have briefly recalled the basic notions about polylogarithms and zeta-numbers used in \S 3. Logarithmically divergent series 1 1.1 series denote the set of formal series $f= \sum f_{n}z^{n}$ with complex coefficients Let has an asymptotic expansion of the form in which the coefficient $\mathcal{K}\subset \mathbb{C}[[z]]$ $f_{n}$ $\infty$ . (1) $p_{k}({\rm Log}n)n^{-k}$ n)n^{-k}$ $f_{n}\sim$ $1p_{k}({\rm Log} $f_{n} \sim\sum_{1}$ 1 a polynomial. Polylogarithm series $f=Li_{a}$ is apolynomial. for $narrow\infty$ , where for each , belong to and zeta values are special cases of convergent series $f(1)$ , cf. below. has $S_{n}(f)$ $=S_{n}=$ \sum_{0}^{n}f_{k}$ . Condition (1) is equivalent to the fact that We set $S_{n}(f)=S_{n}= aasimilar similar asymptotic expansion: $k$ $p_{k}$ $\mathcal{K}$ $S_{n}$ $\sum n0f_{k}$ (2) $S_{n} \sim\sum_{0}^{\infty}P_{k}({\rm Log} n)n^{-k}$ $S_{n} \sim\sum_{0}P_{k}({\rm Log} n)n^{-k}$ . This implies that the series is convergent for $|z|<1$ and its sum, still denoted admits for $zarrow 1-0$ an asymptotic expansion: (3) $f(z) \sim\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}(1-z)^{k}Q_{k}({\rm Log}\frac{1}{1-z})$ $f(z) \sim\sum_{k=0}(1-z)^{k}Q_{k}({\rm Log})\overline{1-z}[perp]$ are also polynomials (the converse is not true). We will denote the leading polynomials where the (4) $Q_{k}$ $S_{f}=P_{0}$ The following result is immediate: , $M_{f}=Q_{0}$ $f(z)$ 2 Lemma 1 The following statements are equivalent: 1) The numerical series is convergent. 2) The numerical series is absoltrtely convergent. $S_{f}=P_{0}$ 3) The polynomial is constant. 4) The polynomial $M_{f}=Q_{0}$ is constant. and are then equal constants: $S_{f}=M_{f}= \sum f_{n}$ . $\sum f_{n}$ $\sum f_{n}$ $M_{f}$ $s_{f}$ 1.2 Products. Let be a field. On the set of formal series commutative products defined by: $k\in \mathbb{C}$ (5) $f \cross g=\sum f_{p}g_{q}z^{p+q}’$. $k[[T]]$ we have two associative and $f*g= \sum f_{p}g_{q}z^{\sup(p,q)}$ the first is the usual product (corresponding to the shuffle product below), the is the -th partial sum, second is the unique product such that if $S_{n}(f)$ we have $S_{n}(f*g)=S_{n}(f)S_{n}(g)$ for all (corresponding to the shuflle product below). $\mathrm{m}$ $=$ $\sum n1f_{k}$ $n$ $n$ $*$ It is immediate that is a sub-algebra for both products, i.e. the coefficients of and $f*g$ have a logarithmic asymptotic expansion as above if and do. , The map $farrow M_{f}(X)$ , resp. $farrow S_{f}(X)$ a homomorphism of the algebra , to the polynomial algebra (surjective if resp. ). $\mathcal{K}$ $f\cross g$ $f$ $g$ $(\mathcal{K}, \cross)$ $(\mathcal{K}, *)$ $k=\mathbb{C}$ $\mathbb{C}[T]$ Corollary 1 Let be the subset of convergent series with vanishing sum: I is an ideal of for both multiplication laws , it. It contains all elements of the $fom$ $I\subset \mathcal{K}$ $\mathcal{K}$ $f*g-f\cross g$ $\cross$ for , $f$ $g\mathrm{E}$ $\mathcal{K}_{f}f$ convergent. Indeed is multiplicative for (resp. for ) and $M_{f}=0\Leftrightarrow S_{f}=0.$ The second assertion follows from the fact that, if is convergent, setting $a=f(1)=$ , we have $f*g-f\cross g=(f-a)*$ $(f-a)$ since $f-a$ is convergent with vanishing sum, the same is true for both terms: , $S_{(f-a)*g}=0.$ A typical regularized zeta value is obtained by applying the character (resp. or ) to a divergent polygarithm series, for some number . $M_{f}$ $S_{f}$ $\cross$ $*$ $f$ $\sum f_{n}$ $g$ – $\cross g;$ $M_{(f-a)\mathrm{x}g}=0$ $f\mapsto M_{f}(\theta)$ $f\mapsto S_{f}(\theta)$ 1.3 $\theta$ Relation between $M_{f}$ and $Q_{f}$ Corollary 1 shows that the polynomials et determine each other for $f\in$ C. We will explicit the formula which links them. We use the generating series $F=F(T, z)$ , with is a formal parameter: $M_{[}$ $S_{f}$ $T$ (6) so that $F= \sum\frac{T^{n}}{n!}(\log\frac{1}{1-z})^{n}=(1-z)^{-T}$ $M_{F}(X)=e^{TX}$ . Then for $F$ we get $\sum S_{n}zn=\frac{F}{1-z}=(1-z)^{-T-1}=\sum(1+T)$ . .. $(1+ \frac{T}{n})z^{n}$ i.e. $S_{n}=(1+T)$ $(1+ \frac{T}{n})\sim\frac{e^{T1\mathrm{o}\mathrm{g}n}}{T!}$ \ldots Taking limits (the limit holds in any reasonable sense, in particular the coefficients converge) we get of the $T^{k}$ $S_{F}(X)= \frac{1}{T!}e^{TX}=\frac{1}{\frac{d}{dX}!}e^{TX}$ Theorem 1 For any f $\in \mathcal{K}$ we have: $S_{f}(X)= \frac{1}{\frac{d}{dX}!}Qf(X)$ If we explicit the Taylor-series expansion of $S_{f}(X)=\exp$ with here the convention 2 [ 1 this can be rewritten $\sum_{1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)}{j}\dot{\mathrm{y}}-1\zeta(j)(\frac{d}{dX})^{j}]$ $\zeta(1)=\gamma$ $Q_{f}(X)$ , the Euler constant. Polylogarithms. In this section we recall basic facts about polylogarithms. Let , or ). acteristic 0 ( $k=\mathbb{Q}$ $\mathbb{R}$ $k$ be a field of char- $\mathbb{C}$ Polylogarithm functions. 2.1 , Let denotes the free algebra with two generators if there is a risk of confusion). It has a canonical basis $W$ consisting of words (monomials): a word of degree $N$ is $w=X_{i_{0}}\ldots$ $XiN$ , $i_{k}=0$ or 1; $w=1$ if $N=0$ (empty word). $\circ$ $X_{0}$ $\mathcal{L}=k\langle X_{0}, X_{1}\rangle$ $X_{1}(\mathcal{L}_{k}$ denotes the completion of : its elements are formal series $f=E$ w. We identify with the graded dual of (it might be better to use another notation; the shuffle products below live on the the free (concatenation) product lives on dual. Duality endows with a structure of left or right -module, via inner prod. Since 1 is a generator of the left or right ffee module ucts, e.g. such that , it is a cogenerator in the dual, i.e. if $a\in L:,$ $a\neq 0$ there exists (or ). $\circ\hat{\mathcal{L}}$ $f_{w}$ $\mathcal{L}$ $\hat{\mathcal{L}}$ $\mathcal{L}$ $\hat{\mathcal{L}},\cdot$ $\mathcal{L}^{0}$ $\mathcal{L}$ $\circ$ $\langle a\lrcorner g, g\rangle=\langle a, gf\rangle$ $f\in\hat{\mathcal{L}}$ $\mathcal{L}$ $a_{\lrcorner}f=1$ $f_{\llcorner}a=1$ To each we associate linearly a polylogarithm function $Li_{a}(z)$ so that the -valued the formal series $L=L(z)= \sum_{w\in W}Li_{w}(z)w$ satisfies the differential equation $\circ$ $a\in \mathcal{L}$ $\mathcal{L}$ (7) $L\{z$ ) $=( \frac{dz}{z}X_{0}+\frac{dz}{1-z}X_{1})$ L, $L^{reg}(0)=1$ 4 are holomorphic functions on ] , 1 [, and extend as ramified The coefficients complex plane.

An easy induction then shows that for either law $A$ is a some monomial , . The successive powers , are polynomial algebra: not equal, and the relation between them is given by the next result: $k$ $b$ $A_{\mathrm{m}}=$ $4\mathrm{L}[y_{1}]$ $A_{*}=A_{*}^{0}[y_{1}]$ Theorem 2 We have the following identity expm (16) where expm, $y_{1}T=$ exp’ $y_{1}^{*k}$ of formal series with coefficients $r\cdot es$ This follows immediately from the equality in $4_{\mathrm{m}}[[T]]$ $y_{1}^{\mathrm{m}k}=k!y_{1\ldots 1}=k!X_{1}^{k}$ ; $U( \exp^{\mathrm{m}}y_{1}T))=\prod(1+t_{j}T)=\exp\sum_{k\geq 1,j}\frac{(-1)}{k}k-1t$ Since $\sum t_{j}^{k}=U(y_{k})$ , resp. \sum_{n_{1}>\cdots>n_{k}}t_{n_{1}}\ldots t_{n_{k}}=\sum_{n_{1}\neq\cdots\neq n_{k}}t_{n_{1}}\ldots t_{n_{k}}$ and this implies (16). in $\sum_{1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)}{k}yk-1kTk$ resp. exp* denote the exponential ser $U(y_{1}^{\mathrm{m}k})=k! $y_{1}^{\mathrm{m}k}$ $T^{k}$ $A_{*}[[T]]$ . so we have $A$ : 7 One can reformulate this identity as follows: let $D$ be the “left interior” product operator by in $A$ . This is a derivation, for both laws and since $X_{1}=y_{1}$ is . . . $y_{s_{n}}=0$ if $>1$ , primitive for both coproducts Am, . We have .. if $s_{1}=1$ and the fixed sub-algebra of $D$ is the subring $A^{0}=k+X_{0}\mathcal{L}X_{1}$ above, corresponding to the “obviously” convergent series. Theorem 1 can be expressed as follows: $X_{1}$ $*$ $\Delta$ Corollary 2 Let $\Phi(D)$ (17) be the (infinite order) $\Phi(D)=\mathrm{e}\mathrm{x}\mathrm{p}$ Then for $f_{k}\in A^{0}$ $Dy_{s_{1}}$ ’ $\mathrm{m}$ $s_{1}$ differential $( \sum_{k\geq 2}\frac{(-1)}{k}y_{k}D^{k})k-1$ operator on $y_{s_{r}}$ $j_{s_{2}}$ $(A, *)$ : . we have (18) $\sum \mathrm{j}_{k}$ ” $y_{1}^{\mathrm{m}k}=$ f $(D) \sum f_{k}*y_{1}^{*k}$ Relations 3.2 from Regularized divergent 4 values are obtained by extending the character t $A$ for one of the laws or ; for this one only needs to define the zeta-value , so the extended character is , resp. with the notation of , the Euler constant. \S 1; the most natural choices are The two extensions are not equal. However both extensions coincide on on the elements $a\in A$ such that the corresponding series $f=Li_{a}= \sum f_{n}z^{n}$ is convergent for $z=1$ ( . $S_{f}=M_{f}=$ constant, as in 51); for such an element the zeta number $\zeta_{a}=Li_{a}(1)$ is still unambiguously defined. These elements form a sub-algebra, for both laws and , which contains $A^{0}=k+X_{0}\mathcal{L}X_{1}$ . By \S 1 the null-ideal is the same for both extended characters: it is the set is not defined of all $a\in A$ such that $Li_{a}(1)$ is convergent, and the sum is 0. over (the coefficients of the extended character are not rational, and is not of codimention 1 if is smaller than ). However certainly contains all elements of $12-j1\mathrm{m}Tl2$ !l3-y12 hence the form $a*b-amb$ with $b\in A^{0}$ .
