Motivic Linebarger–Zhao conjecture for multiple zeta star values

Let ai,ciNa_i,c_i\in\mathbb{N}^{\ast} with ci2c_i\neq 2, and define

γi=ci3+2δci,\gamma_i=c_i-3+2\delta_{c_i},

where δc=δc=1\delta_c=\delta_{c=1} equals 11 if c=1c=1 and 00 otherwise. Define

B0=(1)2a0δc1(2a0+1δc1),B_0=(-1)^{2a_0-\delta_{c_1}}(2a_0+1-\delta_{c_1}), Bi=(1)2aiδciδci+1(2ai+3δciδci+1),B_i=(-1)^{2a_i-\delta_{c_i}-\delta_{c_{i+1}}}(2a_i+3-\delta_{c_i}-\delta_{c_{i+1}}),

and

Bp=(1)2ap+1δcp(2ap+2δcp).B_p=(-1)^{2a_p+1-\delta_{c_p}}(2a_p+2-\delta_{c_p}).

Here \text{\boldmath 1}^{\gamma_i} denotes a string of γi\gamma_i ones. Motivic Linebarger–Zhao conjecture. Each motivic multiple zeta star value satisfies

ζ,m(\boldmath2a0,c1,,cp,\boldmath2ap)=(1)1+δc1ζ,m(B0,\boldmath1γ1,,\boldmath1γi,Bi,,Bp).\zeta^{\star,\mathfrak{m}}(\text{\boldmath $2$}^{a_0},c_1,\ldots,c_p,\text{\boldmath $2$}^{a_p})=(-1)^{1+\delta_{c_1}}\zeta^{\sharp,\mathfrak{m}}(B_0,\text{\boldmath $1$}^{\gamma_1},\ldots,\text{\boldmath $1$}^{\gamma_i},B_i,\ldots,B_p).

This predicts an expression of every motivic multiple zeta star value as a motivic Euler sharp sum. The section presents it as conjectural and does not establish the identity in full.
