Asymptotic conjecture for the coefficient C_{121}(N)

About 12 years old · traced to

Let w0≈0.916198+0.182459iw_0\approx 0.916198+0.182459i be the unique solution of Li2⁡(w)+2πilog⁡(w)=0\operatorname{Li_2}(w)+2\pi i\log(w)=0, and define

z0:=log⁡(1−w0)−2πi+1.z_0:=\frac{\log(1-w_0)}{-2\pi i}+1.

Then w0=1−e−2πiz0w_0=1-e^{-2\pi i z_0} and 1<Re⁡(z0)<21<\operatorname{Re}(z_0)<2. The asymptotic conjecture for C121(N)C_{121}(N). One has

C121(N)=Re⁡[−z02eπiz0(eπiz0+(−1)N)w0−N/2N2]+O(∣w0∣−N/2N3).C_{121}(N)=\operatorname{Re}\left[-z_0\sqrt{2e^{\pi i z_0}\left(e^{\pi i z_0}+(-1)^N\right)}\frac{w_0^{-N/2}}{N^2}\right]+O\left(\frac{|w_0|^{-N/2}}{N^3}\right).

Together with the corresponding conjecture for C011(N)C_{011}(N), this predicts exponentially growing oscillations and failure of convergence for these coefficients. The source presents this as a conjectural asymptotic formula.
