Stirling polynomials and multiple zeta (star) functions at non-positive integers

Abstract

It is known that the values of multiple zeta functions (MZFs) at non-positive integers can be expressed by Bernoulli numbers. This paper gives explicit formulas for the values of MZFs and multiple zeta star functions (MZSFs) at non-positive integers using Stirling polynomials. We also study the following two points: a connection between MZFs and MZSFs at non-positive integers and a connection between reverse values and generalized Gregory coefficients studied by Matsusaka, Murahara, and Onozuka.
