An inequality involving the Dirichlet eta function

I would be interested in proving the following inequality involving Dirichlet's eta function $eta(s)$ at different values which, after some numerical investigations, I am sure is true



$|chi(1-s)eta(s+2)-eta(3-s)|>0$ $qquad$ $1/2<Re(s)<1$



Here $chi(1-s)=frac{Gamma(s)}{(2pi)^s}2cosleft(frac{pi s}{2} right)frac{1-2^s}{1-2^{1-s}}$ is the factor entering in the functional equation of the Dirichlet eta function



$eta(1-s)=chi(1-s)eta(s)$



Do you have any suggestion on how to attack this problem and/or references that could be helpful? Thank you very much in advance!

  • You mean: there are no zeros for $Re s > 1/2?$

  • Yes. This is exactly what I mean. I have, however, corrected the question, because the region that I have investigated is $1/2<Re{s} < 1$.

  • Ok, I think I have established the result by using that, letting $s=sigma +it$, we have $1/7<|zeta(2+s)/zeta(3-s)|<7$ and $chi(1-s)=O(t^{sigma})$ for sufficiently large $t$. Thanks anyway.
