Abstract:
In a recent paper, A. Libgober showed that the multiplicative sequence  of Chern classes corresponding to the power series  appears in a relation between the Chern classes of certain Calabi-Yau manifolds and the periods of their mirrors. We show that the polynomials  can be expressed in terms of multiple zeta values.
