### Asymptotic expansions of double zeta-functions of Barnes, of Shintani, and Eisenstein series

Kohji Matsumoto

#### Abstract

The present paper contains three main results. The first is asymptotic expansions of Barnes double zeta-functions, and as a corollary, asymptotic expansions of holomorphic Eisenstein series follow. The second is asymptotic expansions of Shintani double zeta-functions, and the third is the analytic continuation of $n$-variable multiple zeta-functions (or generalized Euler-Zagier sums). The basic technique of proving those results is the method of using the Mellin-Barnes type of integrals.
