Montgomery–Vaughan conjecture on large values of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions

From papers

Let dd range over fundamental discriminants with dX|d|\leq X. Write log2x=loglogx\log_2 x=\log\log x and log3x=logloglogx\log_3 x=\log\log\log x, and let θ\theta and Θ\Theta be constants satisfying 0<θ<Θ<10<\theta<\Theta<1. Montgomery–Vaughan's conjecture. The number of such discriminants satisfying

L(1,χd)eγ(log2d+log3d)L(1,\chi_d)\geq e^{\gamma}\left(\log_2|d|+\log_3|d|\right)

is greater than XθX^{\theta} and less than XΘX^{\Theta}. This concerns the frequency of exceptionally large values of quadratic Dirichlet LL-functions near the conjectured extreme-value scale. The supplied source does not establish whether the conjecture has been resolved.
