Note on the number of zeros of $\zeta^{(k)}(s)$

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove that $$ N_k(T) = \frac{T}{2\pi}\log \frac{T}{4\pi e} + O_k\left(\frac{\log{T}}{\log\log{T}}\right), $$ where $N_k(T)$ is the number of zeros of $\zeta^{(k)}(s)$ in the region $0<\Im s\le T$. We further apply our method and obtain a zero counting formula for the derivative of Selberg zeta functions, improving earlier work of Luo.
