Abstract: In this talk, we introduce the notion of marked partitions and explain some of their relationships to q-analogues of multiple zeta values (qMZVs). Marked partitions are partitions where each row and column of the corresponding Young diagram can be marked with one color. We interpret qMZVs as generating a series of marked partitions. With this concept, we can visualize and prove, for example, the so-called Schlesinger-Zudilin duality. Furthermore, we show that the generating series of the number of conjugacy classes of GL(n,K) for a finite field K is given by the generating series of certain Ohno-Okuda-Zudilin qMZVs.
