Values and derivative values at nonpositive integers of generalized multiple Hurwitz zeta functions

We establish the meromorphic continuation of certain multiple zeta functions of generalized Hurwitz type. From this meromorphic continuation, we obtain explicit formulas for their (derivative) values at nonpositive integers along a given direction. As an application, we provide explicit formulas for some values and derivative values of the Witten zeta functions ${\zeta }_{{\mathfrak{g}}_2}$ and ${\zeta }_{\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{o}(5)}$. Furthermore, by employing a Meinardus-type theorem, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the number of $n$-dimensional representations of the exceptional Lie algebra ${\mathfrak{g}}_2$.
