Generators and Relations for K_2 O_F (2004)
Journal Article
Belabas, K., & Gangl, H. (2004). Generators and Relations for K_2 O_F. K-Theory, 31(3), 195 - 231. https://doi.org/10.1023/b%3Akthe.0000028979.91416.00

Tate's algorithm for computing K_2 O_F for rings of integers in a number field has been adapted for the computer and gives explicit generators for the group and sharp bounds on their order---the latter, together with some structural results on the p-...

Functional equations for higher logarithms (2003)
Journal Article
Gangl, H. (2003). Functional equations for higher logarithms. Selecta Mathematica (New Series), 9(3), 361 - 377. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00029-003-0312-z

Following earlier work by Abel and others, Kummer gave in 1840 functional equations for the polylogarithm function Li_m(z) up to m = 5, but no example for larger m was known until recently. We give the first genuine 2-variable functional equation for... Read More about Functional equations for higher logarithms.

On poly(ana)logs I (2002)
Journal Article
Elbaz-Vincent, P., & Gangl, H. (2002). On poly(ana)logs I. Compositio Mathematica, 130(2), 161-214. https://doi.org/10.1023/a%3A1013757217319

We investigate a connection between the differential of polylogarithms (as considered by Cathelineau) and a finite variant of them. This allows to answer a question raised by Kontsevich concerning the construction of functional equations for the fini... Read More about On poly(ana)logs I.
