Abstract
Bowman and Bradley proved an explicit formula for the sum of multiple zeta values whose indices are the sequence (3, 1, 3, 1, ⋯ , 3, 1) with a number of 2's inserted. Kondo, Saito and Tanaka considered the similar sum of multiple zeta-star values and showed that this value is a rational multiple of a power of p. In this paper, we give an explicit formula for the rational part. In addition, we interpret the result as an identity in the harmonic algebra.
