Mixed Tate motives over ℤ

We prove that the category of mixed Tate motives over ℤ is spanned by the motivic fundamental group of ℙ 1 minus three points. We prove a conjecture by M. Hoffman which states that every multiple zeta value is a ℚ-linear combination of ζ(n 1 ,..., n r ), where n i ∈ {2, 3}.
