✦ Synopsis


We show how various known results concerning the Barnes multiple zeta and gamma functions can be obtained as specializations of simple features shared by a quite extensive class of functions. The pertinent functions involve Laplace transforms, and their asymptotics is obtained by exploiting this. We also demonstrate how Barnes' multiple zeta and gamma functions fit into a recently developed theory of minimal solutions to first order analytic difference equations. Both of these new approaches to the Barnes functions give rise to novel integral representations. 2000 Academic Press Contents. 1. Introduction. 2. Generalized Barnes functions. 3. Barnes' multiple zeta and gamma functions. 4. The difference equation perspective. Appendix. A. First order difference equations.

In this paper we present a relation among the multiple zeta values which generalizes simultaneously the ``sum formula'' and the ``duality'' theorem. As an application, we give a formula for the special values at positive integral points of a certain zeta function of Arakawa and Kaneko in terms of mu
