Abstract

Let qq be a prime, χ\chi be a non-principal Dirichlet character mod q\bmod\ q and L(s,χ)L(s,\chi) be the associated Dirichlet LL-function. For every odd prime q107q\le 10^7, we show that L(1,χ)>c1logqL(1,\chi_\square) > c_{1} \log q and β<1c2logq\beta < 1- \frac{c_{2}}{\log q}, where c1=0.0124862668c_1=0.0124862668\dotsc, c2=0.0091904477c_2=0.0091904477\dotsc, χ\chi_{\square} is the quadratic Dirichlet character mod q\bmod\ q and β(0,1)\beta\in (0,1) is the Landau-Siegel zero, if it exists, of such a set of Dirichlet LL-functions. As a by-product of the computations here performed, we also obtained some information about the Littlewood and Joshi bounds on L(1,χ)L(1,\chi_\square) and on the class number of the imaginary quadratic field Q(q){\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{-q}).
