201008.0686v1 Quadratic relations for a q-analogue of multiple zeta values

We obtain a class of quadratic relations for a q-analogue of multiple zeta values (qMZV´s). In the limit q->1, it turns into Kawashima´s relation for multiple zeta values. As a corollary we find that qMZV´s satisfy the linear relation contained in Kawashima´s relation. In the proof we make use of a q-analogue of Newton series an..
