Abstract:
Let be a real odd Dirichlet character of modulus , and let be the associated Dirichlet -function. As a consequence of the work of Low and Purdy, it is known that if and , , , then has no positive real zeros. By a simple extension of their ideas and the advantage of thirty years of advances in computational power, we are able to prove that if , then has no positive real zeros.
