 ### "Bad" Dirichlet characters
 
-Our goal is to show that `L χ 1 ≠ 0` when `χ` is a (nontrivial) quadratic Dirichlet character.
+Our goal is to show that `L(χ, 1) ≠ 0` when `χ` is a (nontrivial) quadratic Dirichlet character.
 To do that, we package the contradictory properties in a structure `DirichletCharacter.BadChar`
 and derive further statements eventually leading to a contradiction.
