Streszczenie
Let $k\ge 1$ denote any positive rational integer. We give formulae for the sums $$ S_{\rm odd}(k,f) =\sum _{\chi (-1)=-1}| L(k,\chi )| ^2 $$ (where $\chi $ ranges over the $\phi (f)/2$ odd Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$) whenever $k\ge 1$ is odd, and for the sums $$ S_{\rm even}(k,f) =\sum _{\chi (-1)=+1} | L(k,\chi )| ^2 $$ (where $\chi $ ranges over the $\phi (f)/2$ even Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$) whenever $k\ge 1$ is even.
