Unramified Motivic Alternating Multiple Mixed Values

Source abstract

Many variants of the multiple zeta values have been studied in recent years. There are a few among them that remain to be real numbers, such as the multiple mixed values defined by the authors as level-two generalizations, which include both Hoffman's multiple $t$-values and Kaneko--Tsumura's multiple $T$-values. A central question is when such a value descends to level one, that is, when it can be expressed as a $\Q$-linear combination of multiple zeta values. We call these values unramified. In this paper, we further consider the alternating version of the above variants and identify five families of unramified alternating multiple mixed values using the descent theory of Brown and Glanois. We conjecture that all unramified truly alternating multiple mixed values are given in this paper.
