摘要
We present some monotonicity results for Dirichlet L-functions associated to real primitive characters. We show in particular that these Dirichlet L-functions are far from being logarithmically completely monotonic. Also, we show that, unlike in the case of the Riemann zeta function, the problem of comparing the signs of d(k)/ds(k) log L(s, chi) at any two points s(1), s(2) > 1 is subtler. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.
