  "abstract": "We prove a slightly sharper version of a result of Rider and Vir\\'ag who proved that after centering, the logarithm of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial of the Ginibre ensemble converges in law to the Gaussian Free Field on the unit disk with free boundary conditions (and continued harmonically outside of it). Using their results on the linear statistics of the Ginibre ensemble, we prove a result that removes the ambiguity concerning the \"constant part\" or zero mode of the field.",
