R-polynomial expansions of Carlson's L-function #
The scalar Taylor coefficients give an absolutely convergent expansion for all
complex Dirichlet parameters, not just the native convergence region. At t = 0
the coefficients are explicit, giving the logarithmic series of Carlson (1987),
(5.8), in powers of z - 1 rather than 1 - z.
The derivative-coefficient formulation is nonsingular at integral exponents. Explicit Pochhammer/digamma evaluations at general exponents, (5.3)–(5.7), are not yet supplied by this module.
Scalar Taylor coefficients about one of the power-logarithm kernel.

The constant coefficient vanishes for every exponent.
The first coefficient is one, independently of the exponent.
The unit disk about one avoids the principal logarithm's branch cut.
The continued L-function has the R-polynomial Taylor representation on the full unit polydisk, even at exceptional total parameters.
Absolute convergence of the continued L-expansion.
At exponent zero the Taylor coefficients are those of log (1 + x).
