Extreme Values of Quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over Monic Irreducible Polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$
In this paper, we establish a new $\Omega$-result for the values $|L(\sigma,\chi_P)|$ of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at and near the central point, where \[ \sigma=\frac12+\frac{\kappa}{\ln g}, \qquad \kappa\geq 0, \] and $P$ ranges over monic irreducible polynomials associated with hyperelliptic curves of genus...
