Kaneko–Tsumura's conjecture on unramified multiple T-values

Let T(k1,,kd)T(k_1,\dots,k_d) be the multiple TT-value of weight k1++kdk_1+\cdots+k_d and depth dd, and let MZVMZV denote the QQ-span of multiple zeta values. A multiple TT-value is unramified when it belongs to MZVMZV; duals are understood in the sense of the multiple TT-value duality.

Kaneko–Tsumura's conjecture. For even weights, the values T(k,l,m)T(k,l,m) with k,rk,r odd and at least 33 and qq even, together with their duals, are in MZVMZV. Together with the single TT-values, these values and their duals are the only unramified multiple TT-values. For odd weights, the values T(p,1,r)T(p,1,r) with p,rp,r even, together with their duals, are in MZVMZV. Together with the single and double TT-values, these values and their duals are the only unramified multiple TT-values.

This conjecture proposes a complete classification of unramified multiple TT-values by weight and depth. The paper studies its motivic analogue and establishes necessity of the proposed conditions at least in depth less than four, while the full classification remains open.
