Isomorphism between Hopf algebras for multiple zeta values

Abstract

The classical quasi-shuffle algebra for multiple zeta values have a well-known Hopf algebra structure. Recently, the shuffle algebra for multiple zeta values are also equipped with a Hopf algebra structure. This paper shows that these two Hopf algebras are isomorphic utilizing quasi-symmetric functions. This Hopf algebra isomorphism is compared with with the well-known isomorphism between the shuffle Hopf algebra and quasi-shuffle Hopf algebra of Hoffman, Newman and Radford.
