SUMMARY:Multiple zeta values and quasi-symmetric functions - Hoffman\, ME

DESCRIPTION:In the past 15 years many insights about multiple zeta values 
 (MZVs) have come from the observation that they are homomorphic images of 
 elements of the Hopf algebra QSym of quasi-symmetric functions. I will dis
 cuss some aspects of homomorphisms from QSym to the reals related to MZVs\
 , including connections with topology and recent results on MZVs of even a
 rguments.\n\n
