    Abstract

    We provide evaluations of several recently studied higher and multiple Mahler
    measures using log-sine integrals. This is complemented with an analysis of
    generating functions and identities for log-sine integrals which allows the
    evaluations to be expressed in terms of zeta values or more general
    polylogarithmic terms. The machinery developed is then applied to evaluation of
    further families of multiple Mahler measures.

    Abstract

    We continue the analysis of higher and multiple Mahler measures using
    log-sine integrals as started in "Log-sine evaluations of Mahler measures" and
    "Special values of generalized log-sine integrals" by two of the authors. This
    motivates a detailed study of various multiple polylogarithms and worked
    examples are given. Our techniques enable the reduction of several multiple
    Mahler measures, and supply an easy proof of two conjectures by Boyd.
