Professor Masanobu Kaneko's 64th

Date: February 18th, 2025, Kindai University, Osaka, Japan

"We are Kaneko Admirers"

by Multi-Zeta-Stars

Derivation, space dimension
double shuffle, Eisensteins,
Multi-poly-berry-noully
quasiperiodic chains.

Theta constants, kappa function,
Fuchsian system of rank 8,
Ultra-discretization,
moduli reverberate!

We are Kaneko admirers,
MZVs are in our veins,
have Ramanujan inspire us,
zeta functions rule our brains!

Algebraic independence,
polygons and pyramids,
point arrangements Fibonacci,
a hundred master student kids...!

Multi-poly-logarithms,
double zetas, Euler's back!
Fourier sums and j-invariants,
General Weil descent attack.

We are Kaneko admirers,
MZVs are in our veins,
have Ramanujan inspire us,
zeta functions rule our brains!


This is the rehearsal version of the song performed by the Multi-Zeta-Stars at the celebration party of Professor Masanobu Kaneko's 64th birthday on February 18, 2025. The lyrics are composed by Herbert Gangl using rhythmically fitting phrases from the titles of Professor Kaneko’s past research papers.

The song was generated by AI, and the lyrics were created based on a list of individuals who had obtained doctoral and master’s degrees under the supervision of Professor Masanobu Kaneko by 2024. Initially, it was intended to be performed at the celebration party on February 18, 2025, but since it was not completed in time, we have decided to quietly share it here as a commemorative piece.
