Abstract

In this paper, we investigate large values of Dirichlet polynomials with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n\le N}f(n)n^{it}$, where $1\ll t\le T$ for large $T$. We prove an improved Omega result in the region $\exp((\log T)^{\frac12+\varepsilon})\le N\le\sqrt T$, where $T$ is large. We also show an Omega result when $\log N$ is around $\sqrt{\log T\log_2T}$.
