Central-line maximal logarithmic derivative conjecture for Dirichlet LL-functions

About 3 years old · traced to

Let qq tend to infinity through the primes. For a prime qq, let χ0\chi_0 be the principal character modulo qq, and let L(s,χ)L(s,\chi) be the Dirichlet LL-function associated with χ\chi. Write log⁡2q=log⁡log⁡q\log_2 q=\log\log q. Central-line maximal logarithmic derivative conjecture. There exist constants A>0A>0 and D>12D>\frac12 such that, as prime q→∞q\to\infty,

max⁡χ≠χ0χ (mod⁡q)Re⁡(e−iθL′L(12,χ))∼Alog⁡q(log⁡2q)D,\max_{\substack{\chi\neq\chi_0\\ \chi\ (\operatorname{mod} q)}}\operatorname{Re}\left(e^{-\mathrm{i}\theta}\frac{L'}{L}\left(\frac12,\chi\right)\right)\sim A\sqrt{\log q}(\log_2 q)^D,

uniformly for all θ∈[0,2π]\theta\in[0,2\pi]. This conjectures the scale of the largest directional logarithmic derivative at the central point, with the constants constrained only by A>0A>0 and D>12D>\frac12; no resolution is supplied.
