The existence of a strong spectral gap for lattices in semi-simple Lie groups is crucial in many applications. In particular, for arithmetic lattices it is useful to have bounds for the strong spectral gap that are uniform in the family of…

The spectral gap of local random quantum circuits is a fundamental property that determines how close the moments of the circuit's unitaries match those of a Haar random distribution. When studying spectral gaps, it is common to bound these…
