On the Smallest Counterexample to the Log-Concavity of the D'Arcais Polynomials

Recently, Starr used asymptotic methods to disprove a conjecture by Heim–Neuhauser and Abdesselam about the log-concavity of the D’Arcais polynomials, without giving an explicit counterexample. We refine the asymptotics, to give the necessary estimates on convolutions of ${\sigma }_{-1}$, and identify the first counterexample at $\lambda =65214507758400$. We also consider the asymptotic density of such counterexamples.
