We prove that for every c < 1 there exists arbitrarily large T with

|ζ(1/2+iT )| > exp(c sqrt(logT logloglogT / loglogT)).

This improves classical results by Montgomery, Balasubramanian-Ramachandra, and Soundararajan. We will discuss the main components of the proof: Soundararajan’s resonance method, multiplicative functions, and convolution formulas for the Riemann zeta function. Further applications of the suggested approach will be considered.
