On a conjecture of Faulhuber and Steinerberger on the logarithmic derivative of ϑ4
[De la conjecture de Faulhuber et Steinerberger sur la dérivée logarithmique de ϑ4]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 356 (2018) no. 5, pp. 457-462.

Faulhuber et Steinerberger ont conjecturé que la dérivée logarithmique de ϑ4 possède la propriété selon laquelle y2ϑ4(y)/ϑ4(y) est strictement décroissant et strictement convexe. Dans cette courte note, nous démontrons cette conjecture.

Faulhuber and Steinerberger conjectured that the logarithmic derivative of ϑ4 has the property that y2ϑ4(y)/ϑ4(y) is strictly decreasing and strictly convex. In this small note, we prove this conjecture.
