Euler sums (also called Zagier sums) occur within the context of knot theory and quantum field theory. There are various conjectures related to these sums whose incompletion is a sign that both the mathematics and physics communities do not yet completely understand the field. Here, we assemble results for Euler/Zagier sums (also known as multidimensional zeta/harmonic sums) of arbitrary depth, including sign alternations. Many of our results were obtained empirically and are apparently new. By carefully compiling and examining a huge data base of high precision numerical evaluations, we can claim with some confidence that certain classes of results are exhaustive. While many proofs are lacking, we have sketched derivations of all results that have so far been proved.

  1. Truncated Multiple Zeta Values

    math.NT 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Truncated multiple zeta values with integer arguments, organized by an extended quasi-shuffle algebra, give systematic closed forms for power sums of harmonic numbers and related infinite series.

  2. Multiple zeta values ending with a fixed string

    math.NT 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A generating series is derived for the sum of multiple zeta values ending with a fixed string, implying the sum has depth bounded by the sum of the string entries.
