Conjecture on the asymptotic expansion of the Bonse threshold parameters

About 1 year old · traced to

Let AmA_m be the sequence of threshold parameters associated with the step function Ψ(x)\Psi(x), and suppose that

Am=−2+O ⁣(log⁡log⁡mlog⁡m)as m→∞.A_m=-2+O\!\left(\frac{\log\log m}{\log m}\right)\quad\text{as }m\to\infty.

Asymptotic expansion conjecture. There exists a constant κ>0\kappa>0 such that

Am=−2+κ log⁡log⁡mlog⁡m+o ⁣(log⁡log⁡mlog⁡m).A_m=-2+\kappa\,\frac{\log\log m}{\log m}+o\!\left(\frac{\log\log m}{\log m}\right).

This conjecture sharpens the paper’s asymptotic estimate for AmA_m and predicts the leading correction term; the supplied text gives no evidence that it has been resolved.
