These latter are obtained from the multiple q-zeta values in the limit as q tends to 1. Here, we discuss the sum formula for multiple q-zeta values, and provide a self-contained proof. As a consequence, we also derive a q-analog of Euler's evaluation of the double zeta function zeta(m,1).9 pages, submitted for publication September 30, 2004Quantum AlgebraNumber Theory11M41; 11M06, 05A30, 30B50text
