Ma Luo : Algebraic iterated integrals on the modular curve (Apr 11, 2018 3:10 PM)

In the previous talk, we discussed the algebraic de Rham theory for unipotent fundamental groups of elliptic curves. In this talk, we generalize it to a Q-de Rham theory for the relative completion of the modular group, the (orbifold) fundamental group of the modular curve. Using Chen's method of power series connections, we construct a connection on the modular curve that generalizes the elliptic KZB connection on an elliptic curve. By Tannaka duality, it can be viewed as a universal relative unipotent connection with a regular singularity at the cusp. This connection enables us to construct iterated integrals of modular forms, possibly 'of the second kind', that provide periods called 'multiple modular values' by Brown. These periods include multiple zeta values and periods of modular forms.
