Auxiliary lemmas #
If all values of a ℂ
-valued arithmetic function are nonnegative reals and x
is a
real number in the domain of absolute convergence, then the n
th iterated derivative
of the associated L-series is nonnegative real when n
is even and nonpositive real
when n
is odd.
A function that is complex differentiable on the closed ball of radius r
around c
,
where c
is real, and all whose iterated derivatives at c
are real can be give by a real
differentiable function on the real open interval from c-r
to c+r
.
A function that is complex differentiable on the complex plane and all whose iterated
derivatives at a real point c
are real can be given by a real differentiable function
on the real line.
An entire function whose iterated derivatives at zero are all nonnegative real has nonnegative real values for nonnegative real arguments.
An entire function whose iterated derivatives at zero are all nonnegative real is monotonic on the nonnegative real axis.
An entire function whose iterated derivatives at zero are all nonnegative real (except
possibly the value itself) has values of the form f 0 + nonneg. real
along the nonnegative
real axis.

An entire function whose iterated derivatives at zero are all real with alternating signs
(except possibly the value itself) has values of the form f 0 + nonneg. real
along the nonpositive
real axis.
An entire function whose iterated derivatives at s
are all real with alternating signs
(except possibly the value itself) has values of the form f s + nonneg. real
along the
