Large fluctuations of extended Rademacher random multiplicative functions
Let $f$ be an extended Rademacher random multiplicative function (RMF). We show that, for every fixed deterministic function $V(x)$ tending to infinity, almost surely there are arbitrarily large $x$ for which \[ \sum_{n\leq x}f(n) \geq \frac{\sqrt{x}(\log\log x)^{1/4}}{V(x)}. \] The corresponding negative fluctuation holds as well. In particular, this gives an affirmative answer to Erdős Problem~\#1144. As a byproduct, our result has a direct corollary giving new almost sure lower bounds $\log\log x$ on the number of sign changes of partial sums up to $x$ for all sufficiently large $x$.
