description: In the recent years, much attention has been devoted to the inhomogeneous nature of the mechanical response at the nano-scale in disordered solids. Clearly, the elastic heterogeneities that have been characterized in this context are expected to strongly impact the nature of the sound waves which, in contrast to the case of perfect crystals, cannot be completely rationalized in terms of phonons. Building on previous work on a toy model showing an amorphisation transition [Mizuno H, Mossa S, Barrat JL (2013) EPL {\bf 104}:56001], we investigate the relationship between sound waves and elastic heterogeneities in a unified framework, by continuously interpolating from the perfect crystal, through increasingly defective phases, to fully developed glasses. We provide strong evidence of a direct correlation between sound waves features and the extent of the heterogeneous mechanical response at the nano-scale.

description: We demonstrate sub-wavelength sectioning on biological samples with a conventional confocal microscope. This optical sectioning is achieved by the phenomenon of supercritical angle fuorescence, wherein only a fluorophore next to the interface of a refractive index discontinuity can emit propagating components of radiation into the so-called forbidden angles. The simplicity of this technique allows it to be integrated with a high numerical aperture confocal scanning microscope by only a simple modification on the detection channel. Confocal-SAF microscopy would be a powerful tool to achieve high resolution surface imaging, especially for membrane imaging in biological samples

description: We demonstrate experimentally the realization and the characterization of a chip scale integrated photodetector for the visible and the near infrared spectral regime based on the integration of a MoSe2/WS2 heterojunction on top of a silicon nitride waveguide. This configuration achieves high responsivity of ~1 A/W at the wavelength of 780 nm (indicating an internal gain mechanism), while suppressing the dark current to the level of ~50 pA, much lower as compared to a reference sample of just MoSe2 without WS2. We have measured the power spectral density of the dark current to be as low as ~1x10^-12 A/Hz^0.5 , from which we extract the noise equivalent power (NEP) to be ~1x10^-12 W/Hz^0.5. To demonstrate the usefulness of the device, we use it for the characterization of the transfer function of a microring resonator that is integrated on the same chip as the photodetector. The ability to integrate local photodetectors on chip and to operate such devices with high performance at the visible and the near-infrared regime is expected to play a critical role in future integrated devices in the field of optical communications, quantum photonics, biochemical sensing and more.

description: $H_0$ constraints from galaxy surveys are sourced by the geometric properties of two standardisable rulers: the sound horizon scale, $r_s$, and the matter-radiation equality scale, $k_{\rm eq}$. While most analyses over the last decade have focused on the first scale, recent work has emphasised that the second can provide an independent source of information about the expansion rate of the universe. Recent approaches to obtain a sound-horizon-independent measurement of $H_0$ from the equality scale have avoided $r_s$-based information by removing the sound-horizon-calibrating prior on the baryon density. We present a new method to marginalise over $r_s$; this allows baryon information to be retained enabling tighter parameter constraints. For a Euclid-like spectroscopic survey, we forecast sound-horizon-independent $H_0$ constraints of $σ_{H_0} = 0.7\rm{\ km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$ for our method using the equality scale, compared with $σ_{H_0} = 0.5\rm{\ km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$ from the sound horizon. Upcoming equality scale $H_0$ measurements thus can be highly competitive, although we caution that the impact of observational systematics on such measurements still needs to be investigated in detail. Applying our new approach to the BOSS power spectrum gives $H_0 = 69.5^{+3.0}_{-3.5}\rm{\ km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$ from equality alone, somewhat tighter than previous constraints. Consistency of $r_s$- and $k_{\rm eq}$-based $H_0$ measurements can provide a valuable internal consistency test of the cosmological model; as an example, we consider the change in $H_0$ created by early dark energy. Assuming the \textit{Planck}+SH0ES best-fit EDE model we find a $2.6σ$ shift ($ΔH_0 = 2.6\rm{\ km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$) between the two measurements for Euclid; if we instead assume the ACT best-fit model, this increases to $9.0σ$ ($ΔH_0 = 7.8\rm{\ km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$).

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the local and global comparison of two $n$-variable generalized Bajraktarević means, i.e., to establish necessary as well as sufficient conditions in terms of the unknown functions $f,g,p_1,\dots,p_n,q_1,\dots,q_n:I\to\mathbb{R}$ for the comparison inequality $$ f^{-1}\bigg(\frac{p_1(x_1)f(x_1)+\cdots+p_n(x_n)f(x_n)}{p_1(x_1)+\cdots+p_n(x_n)}\bigg)\leq g^{-1}\bigg(\frac{q_1(x_1)g(x_1)+\cdots+q_n(x_n)g(x_n)}{q_1(x_1)+\cdots +q_n(x_n)}\bigg) $$ in local and global sense. Here $I$ is a nonempty open real interval, $x_1,\dots,x_n\in I$, and $f,g$ is assumed to be continuous, strictly monotone and $p_1,\dots,p_n,q_1,\dots,q_n:I\to\mathbb{R}_+$ are positive valued. Concerning the global comparison problem, the main result of the paper states that if $f,g$ are differentiable functions with nonvanishing first derivatives and, for all $i\in\{1,\dots,n\}$, $$ \frac{p_i}{p_0}=\frac{q_i}{q_0} \qquad\mbox{and}\qquad \frac{p_0(x)(f(x)-f(y))}{p_0(y)f'(y)} \leq\frac{q_0(x)(g(x)-g(y))}{q_0(y)g'(y)}\qquad(x,y\in I) $$ are satisfied (where $p_0:=p_1+\dots+p_n$ and $q_0:=q_1+\dots+q_n$), then the above comparison inequality holds for all $x_1,\dots,x_n\in I$.

description: In the last decade, a dozen close-in giant planets have been discovered orbiting stars with spectral types ranging from M0 to M4, a mystery since known formation pathways do not predict the existence of such systems. Here, we confirm TOI-4860 b, a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting an M4.5 host, a star at the transition between fully and partially convective interiors. First identified with TESS data, we validate the transiting companion's planetary nature through multicolour photometry from the TRAPPIST-South/North, SPECULOOS, and MuSCAT3 facilities. Our analysis yields a radius of $0.76 \pm 0.02~ \rm R_{Jup}$ for the planet, a mass of $0.34~\rm M_\odot$ for the star, and an orbital period of 1.52 d. Using the newly commissioned SPIRIT InGaAs camera at the SPECULOOS-South Observatory, we collect infrared photometry in zYJ that spans the time of secondary eclipse. These observations do not detect a secondary eclipse, placing an upper limit on the brightness of the companion. The planetary nature of the companion is further confirmed through high-resolution spectroscopy obtained with the IRD spectrograph at Subaru Telescope, from which we measure a mass of $0.67 \pm 0.14~\rm M_{Jup}$ . Based on its overall density, TOI-4860 b appears to be rich in heavy elements, like its host star.

description: Understanding and identifying different types of single molecules' diffusion that occur in a broad range of systems (including living matter) is extremely important, as it can provide information on the physical and chemical characteristics of particles' surroundings. In recent years, an ever-growing number of methods have been proposed to overcome some of the limitations of the mean-squared displacements approach to tracer diffusion. In March 2020, the Anomalous Diffusion (AnDi) Challenge was launched by a community of international scientists to provide a framework for an objective comparison of the available methods for anomalous diffusion. In this paper, we introduce a feature-based machine learning method developed in response to Task 2 of the challenge, i.e. the classification of different types of diffusion. We discuss two sets of attributes that may be used for the classification of single-particle tracking data. The first one was proposed as our contribution to the AnDi Challenge. The latter is the result of our attempt to improve the performance of the classifier after the deadline of the competition. Extreme gradient boosting was used as the classification model. Although the deep-learning approach constitutes the state-of-the-art technology for data classification in many domains, we deliberately decided to pick this traditional machine learning algorithm due to its superior interpretability. After the extension of the feature set our classifier achieved the accuracy of 0.83, which is comparable with the top methods based on neural networks.

description: Bimetallic composite nanotweezers based on Ti2NiCu alloy with shape memory effect (SME) have recently demonstrated the ability to manipulate real nano-objects, such as nanotubes, and bionanoparticles when heated to 40-60 C by laser radiation. The possibility of developing nanotweezers operating at constant temperature is of particular importance mainly for the manipulation of biological objects. In this work, a microactuator was produced using a composite bilayer made of a layer of rapidly quenched Ni53Mn24Ga23 ferromagnetic shape memory Heusler alloy and an elastic layer of Pt. The size of the microactuator is 25x2.3x1.7 micro-meters3. A controlled bending deformation of the actuator of 1.2 %, with a deflection of the end of the actuator higher than 2 micro-meter was obtained by applying a magnetic field of 8 T at T = 62 C. The possibility of the development of new technologies for magnetic-field-controlled nanotools operating at a constant temperature using the new multifunction magnetic shape memory alloys will be discussed.

description: We present the extension of the SIBFA (Sum of Interactions Between Fragments Ab initio Computed many-body polarizable force field to condensed phase Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The Quantum-Inspired SIBFA procedure is grounded on simplified integrals obtained from localized molecular orbital theory and achieves full separability of its intermolecular potential. It embodies long-range multipolar electrostatics (up to quadrupole) coupled to a short-range penetration correction (up to charge-quadrupole), exchange-repulsion, many-body polarization, many-body charge transfer/delocalization, exchange-dispersion and dispersion (up to C10). This enables the reproduction of all energy contributions of ab initio Symmetry-Adapted Perturbation Theory (SAPT(DFT)) gas phase reference computations. The SIBFA approach has been integrated within the Tinker-HP massively parallel MD package. To do so all SIBFA energy gradients have been derived and the approach has been extended to enable periodic boundary conditions simulations using Smooth Particle Mesh Ewald. This novel implementation also notably includes a computationally tractable simplification of the many-body charge transfer/delocalization contribution. As a proof of concept, we perform a first computational experiment defining a water model fitted on a limited set of (SAPT(DFT)) data. SIBFA is shown to enable a satisfactory reproduction of both gas phase energetic contributions and condensed phase properties highlighting the importance of its physically-motivated functional form.

description: The oscillation of a Laplacian eigenfunction gives a great deal of information about the manifold on which it is defined. This oscillation can be encoded in the nodal deficiency, an important geometric quantity that is notoriously hard to compute, or even estimate. Here we compare two recently obtained formulas for the nodal deficiency, one in terms of an energy functional on the space of equipartitions of the manifold, and the other in terms of a two-sided Dirichlet-to-Neumann map defined on the nodal set. We relate these two approaches by giving an explicit formula for the Hessian of the equipartition energy in terms of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. This allows us to compute Hessian eigenfunctions, and hence directions of steepest descent, for the equipartition energy in terms of the corresponding Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenfunctions. Our results do not assume bipartiteness, and hence are relevant to the study of spectral minimal partitions.

In this work, we propose a benchmark application that implements an extensive list of privacy weaknesses based on the LINDDUN methodology. It represents a social network for patients whose architecture has first been described in an example analysis conducted by one of the LINDDUN authors. We have implemented this architecture and extended it with more privacy threats to build a test bed that enables comprehensive and independent testing of analysis tools.

description: We provide Fourier expansions of vector-valued eigenfunctions of the hyperbolic Laplacian that are twist-periodic in a horocycle direction. The twist may be given by any endomorphism of a finite-dimensional vector space; no assumptions on invertibility or unitarity are made. Examples of such eigenfunctions include vector-valued twisted automorphic forms of Fuchsian groups. We further provide a detailed description of the Fourier coefficients and explicitly identify each of their constituents, which intimately depend on the eigenvalues of the twisting endomorphism and the size of its Jordan blocks. In addition, we determine the growth properties of the Fourier coefficients.

In a search of this data for radio transients, we have found 49 long (10s of seconds) duration transients. Ten of these transients correlate both spatially and temporally with large meteors (fireballs), and their signatures suggest that fireballs emit a previously undiscovered low frequency, non-thermal pulse. This emission provides a new probe into the physics of meteors and identifies a new form of naturally occurring radio transient foreground.

description: The 2001-2002 Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) nested, crossover-design study explored the operating profiles of two HVAC systems alternated over a period of approximately nine weeks, including during 2001 Fall school semester, in two pairs of classrooms sited adjacent to one another and equipped with either standard or alternate (low-emissivity) interior finish materials. The present study, a retrospective analysis, included inferring estimated indoor ozone concentrations. Because ozone can react with certain indoor pollutants to generate secondary organic aerosols, a mass-balanced based indoor/outdoor ratio expression was used to model indoor ozone to subsequently model indoor particles from possible ozone-initiated chemistry. When the advanced HVAC system, called IDEC, was running, surface (especially ceiling) reactions dominated ozone loss processes. When either of the standard HVAC systems, or Bard (different percentages of outdoor air intake) was running, damper setting and ventilation and/or gas phase reactions accounted for the majority of the indoor-outdoor ozone difference. In this study, statistical analysis indicated classroom B-A containing carpet (with polypropylene/polyolefin backing) and teaching materials (with bare surfaces) had higher fine particle number counts (PNC; PM0.3-0.5/PM0.5-0.7) than in the other study classrooms. Additionally, elevated humidity coupled with elevated estimated ozone at school A-B yielded comparatively elevated PNC. Mixed models demonstrated IDEC system use (100% outdoor air intake) at SDB-A, especially during weeks 7-9, yielded significantly greater indoor PNC (PM0.3-0.5/PM0.5-0.7) values than in the other study classrooms. Bard (50% outdoor air intake) use in both SDA classrooms (A, B) yielded comparatively greater PNC than IDEC.

Cellular zinc homeostasis

description: TP53 is the most commonly mutated gene in cancer; therefore, small molecule restoration of wild type structure and function to mutant p53 (hereafter referred to as “reactivation”) is a highly sought-after goal in cancer therapeutics. Mutations that impair the p53 protein’s ability to bind zinc (zinc deficient mutants) are exceedingly prevalent in cancer. Zinc metallochaperones (ZMCs) are a class of small molecules that reactivate zinc deficient p53 mutants by restoring zinc binding. ZMCs raise intracellular zinc levels by functioning as zinc ionophores, causing mutant p53 to refold properly, which we have termed the “ON” switch. Here we have investigated the cancer cell’s response to this zinc surge and demonstrate that within hours, cellular zinc homeostatic mechanisms normalize zinc levels leading to mutant p53 misfolding and inactivation of the drug, which we have termed the “OFF” switch. This ON/OFF switch imparts a pulsatile nature to the mechanism of ZMCs which indicates that only a brief exposure of a ZMC is necessary for its p53-mediated cell kill. Cell growth inhibition experiments in which we varied the time of exposure to ZMC1 demonstrate an on-target effect in as little as 15 minutes. This switch mechanism is unique in cancer therapeutics and imparts an advantage over other targeted therapeutics in that efficacy can be achieved with minimal exposure which minimizes toxicity and maximizes the therapeutic window. We have extended our understanding of the role of cellular zinc homeostatic mechanisms in ZMC function to serving as a source of innate resistance. HCC1395 is a human triple-negative breast cancer cell line that expresses a zinc-deficient mutant p53 (p53-R175H) but is resistant to ZMC1 withno evidence of refolding of the p53-R175H. We observe that the ZMC1-induced zinc kinetics are markedly reduced when compared to a ZMC1-sensitive cell line. Expression of several cytosolic zinc binding proteins are higher in the resistant cell line, and knockdown of their expression markedly increases the zinc levels in response to ZMC1. Supplementation of ZnCl2 results in a large zinc influx which causes refolding of p53-R175H and sensitizes the cells to ZMC1.Together these data support the hypothesis that cellular zinc homeostatic mechanisms function as an “OFF” switch to regulate the mechanism of ZMCs and also contribute to innate resistance to ZMCs. The latter indicates that high metallothionein levels may serve as a biomarker of resistance to ZMCs.

description: Recent work of the authors and their collaborators has uncovered fundamental connections between the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, the spectral flow of a certain family of self-adjoint operators, and the nodal deficiency of a Laplacian eigenfunction (or an analogous deficiency associated to a non-bipartite equipartition). Using a refined construction of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, we strengthen all of these results, in particular getting improved bounds on the nodal deficiency of degenerate eigenfunctions. Our framework is very general, allowing for non-bipartite partitions, non-simple eigenvalues, and non-smooth nodal sets. Consequently, the results can be used in the general study of spectral minimal partitions, not just nodal partitions of generic Laplacian eigenfunctions.

description: Image reconstruction based on indirect, noisy, or incomplete data remains an important yet challenging task. While methods such as compressive sensing have demonstrated high-resolution image recovery in various settings, there remain issues of robustness due to parameter tuning. Moreover, since the recovery is limited to a point estimate, it is impossible to quantify the uncertainty, which is often desirable. Due to these inherent limitations, a sparse Bayesian learning approach is sometimes adopted to recover a posterior distribution of the unknown. Sparse Bayesian learning assumes that some linear transformation of the unknown is sparse. However, most of the methods developed are tailored to specific problems, with particular forward models and priors. Here, we present a generalized approach to sparse Bayesian learning. It has the advantage that it can be used for various types of data acquisitions and prior information. Some preliminary results on image reconstruction/recovery indicate its potential use for denoising, deblurring, and magnetic resonance imaging.

description: Abstract:
This report analyzes and describes the process of relocating individuals and families who must move due to reservoir construction in Kentucky utilizing data collected in previous research. These data come from four separate studies: a study of community attitudes toward reservoir construction (Johnson county where the Paintsville reservoir is to be constructed), interviews with people who are slated for relocation when the Taylorsville reservoir is constructed, and two sets of interviews with people who have already been relocated due to reservoir construction (Cave Run and Carr Fork).
Psychological, social, economic and material costs and benefits associated with forced relocation are presented, and the role of the relocation agency (The Army Corps of Engineers) in the process is described. Generally, the younger, more affluent and educated migrants fare better in the relocation process than older, poorer and less-educated migrants. Particular attention is paid to those people who found relocation psychologically and economically costly because these are unanticipated and usually unrecorded real costs of reservoir construction. Suggestions are given for easing the burden of relocation among those affected. The framework for this report is longitudinal, describing the relocation process from pre-migration to post-relocation.

description: Femtocell base station (BS) is a low-power, low-price BS based on cellular communication technology. It is expected to become a cost-effective solution for improving the communication performance of indoor users, whose traffic demands are large in general. There are mainly three access strategies for femtocell, i.e., closed access, open access and hybrid access strategies. While it has been generally known that open/hybrid access femtocells contribute more to enhancing the system-wide performance than closed access femtocells, the operating parameters of both macro and femtocells should be carefully chosen according to the mobile operator's policy, consumer's requirements, and so on. We propose long-term parameter optimization schemes, which maximize the average throughput of macrocell users while guaranteeing some degree of benefits to femtocell owners. To achieve this goal, we jointly optimize the ratio of dedicated resources for femtocells as well as the femtocell service area in open access femtocell networks through the numerical analysis. It is proved that the optimal parameter selection of open access femtocell is a convex optimization problem in typical environments. Then, we extend our algorithm to hybrid access femtocells where some intra-femtocell resources are dedicated only for femtocell owners while remaining resources are shared with foreign macrocell users. Our evaluation results show that the proposed parameter optimization schemes significantly enhance the performance of macrocell users thanks to the large offloading gain. The benefits provided to femtocell users are also adaptively maintained according to the femtocell users' requirements. The results in this paper provide insights about the situations where femtocell deployment on dedicated channels is preferred to the co-channel deployment.

description: Depth estimation aims to predict dense depth maps. In autonomous driving scenes, sparsity of annotations makes the task challenging. Supervised models produce concave objects due to insufficient structural information. They overfit to valid pixels and fail to restore spatial structures. Self-supervised methods are proposed for the problem. Their robustness is limited by pose estimation, leading to erroneous results in natural scenes. In this paper, we propose a supervised framework termed Diffusion-Augmented Depth Prediction (DADP). We leverage the structural characteristics of diffusion model to enforce depth structures of depth models in a plug-and-play manner. An object-guided integrality loss is also proposed to further enhance regional structure integrality by fetching objective information. We evaluate DADP on three driving benchmarks and achieve significant improvements in depth structures and robustness. Our work provides a new perspective on depth estimation with sparse annotations in autonomous driving scenes.

description: Boasting supreme magnetic strengths, magnetars are among the prime candidates to generate fast radio bursts. Several theories have been proposed for the formation mechanism of magnetars, but have not yet been fully tested. As different magnetar formation theories expect distinct magnetar space velocity distributions, high-precision astrometry of Galactic magnetars can serve as a probe for the formation theories. In addition, magnetar astrometry can refine the understanding of the distribution of Galactic magnetars. This distribution can be compared against fast radio bursts (FRBs) localized in spiral galaxies, in order to test the link between FRBs and magnetars. Swift J1818.0-1607 is the hitherto fastest-spinning magnetar and the fifth discovered radio magnetar. In an ongoing astrometric campaign, we have observed Swift J1818.0-1607 for one year using the Very Long Baseline Array, and have determined a precise proper motion as well as a tentative parallax for the magnetar.

description: Although a GUI largely replaces textual descriptions by graphical icons, the textual items are not completely removed. The textual items are inevitably used in window titles, message boxes, help items, menu items and popup items. Textual items are necessary for communicating messages that are beyond the limitation of graphical messages. However, it is necessary to harness the textual items on the graphical interface in such a way that they complement each other to produce the best effect. One has to keep various considerations in mind while applying textual items in Graphical User Interface. This article illustrates a few inventions on presenting textual items in a Graphical user Interface.

description: Hard X-rays above 10 keV are detected from several anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), and different models have been proposed to explain the physical origin within the frame of either magnetar model or fallback disk system. Using data from $\it Suzaku$ and INTEGRAL, we study the soft and hard X-ray spectra of four AXPs/SGRs, 1RXS J170849-400910, 1E 1547.0-5408, SGR 1806-20 and SGR 0501+4516. It is found that the spectra could be well reproduced by bulk-motion Comptonization (BMC) process as was first suggested by Tr$ü$mper et al., showing that the accretion scenario could be compatible with X-ray emission of AXPs/SGRs. HXMT simulations for BMC model show that the spectra would have discrepancies from power-law, especially the cutoff at $\sim$ 200 keV. Thus future observations are promising to distinguish different models for the hard tail and may help us understand the nature of AXPs/SGRs.

Uncertainty principle for Hermite functions and null-controllability with sensor sets of decaying density

description: We establish a family of uncertainty principles for finite linear combinations of Hermite functions. More precisely, we give a geometric criterion on a subset $S\subset \RR^d$ ensuring that the $L^2$-seminorm associated to $S$ is equivalent to the full $L^2$-norm on $\RR^d$ when restricted to the space of Hermite functions up to a given degree. We give precise estimates how the equivalence constant depends on this degree and on geometric parameters of $S$. From these estimates we deduce that the parabolic equation whose generator is the harmonic oscillator is null-controllable from $S$. In all our results, the set $S$ may have sub-exponentially decaying density and, in particular, finite volume. We also show that bounded sets are not efficient in this context.

Calculable lower bounds on the efficiency of universal sets of quantum gates

description: Currently available quantum computers, so called Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices, are characterized by relatively low number of qubits and moderate gate fidelities. In such scenario, the implementation of quantum error correction is impossible and the performance of those devices is quite modest. In particular, the depth of circuits implementable with reasonably high fidelity is limited, and the minimization of circuit depth is required. Such depths depend on the efficiency of the universal set of gates $\mathcal{S}$ used in computation, and can be bounded using the Solovay-Kitaev theorem. However, it is known that much better, asymptotically tight bounds of the form $\mathcal{O}(\mathrm{log}(ε^{-1}))$, can be obtained for specific $\mathcal{S}$. Those bounds are controlled by so called spectral gap, denoted $\mathrm{gap}(\mathcal{S})$. Yet, the computation of $\mathrm{gap}(\mathcal{S})$ is not possible for general $\mathcal{S}$ and in practice one considers spectral gap at a certain scale $r(ε)$, denoted $\mathrm{gap}_r(\mathcal{S})$. This turns out to be sufficient to bound the efficiency of $\mathcal{S}$ provided that one is interested in a physically feasible case, in which an error $ε$ is bounded from below. In this paper we derive lower bounds on $\mathrm{gap}_r(\mathcal{S})$ and, as a consequence, on the efficiency of universal sets of $d$-dimensional quantum gates $\mathcal{S}$ satisfying an additional condition. The condition is naturally met for generic quantum gates, such as e.g. Haar random gates. Our bounds are explicit in the sense that all parameters can be determined by numerical calculations on existing computers, at least for small $d$. This is in contrast with known lower bounds on $\mathrm{gap}_r(\mathcal{S})$ which involve parameters with ambiguous values.
