We provide a completely self-contained construction of a family of NLTS Hamiltonians [Freedman and Hastings, 2014] based on ideas from [Anshu, Breuckmann, and Nirkhe, 2022], [Cross, He, Natarajan, Szegedy, and Zhu, 2022] and [Eldar and Harrow, 2017]. Crucially, it does not require optimal-parameter quantum LDPC codes and can be built from simple classical LTCs such as the repetition code on an expander graph. Furthermore, it removes the constant-rate requirement from the construction of Anshu, Breuckmann, and Nirkhe.

We study the power spectrum of eigen-angles of random matrices drawn from the circular unitary ensemble ${\rm CUE}(N)$ and show that it can be evaluated in terms of either a Fredholm determinant, or a Toeplitz determinant, or a sixth Painlevé function. In the limit of infinite-dimensional matrices, $N\rightarrow\infty$, we derive a ${\it\, concise\,}$ parameter-free formula for the power spectrum which involves a fifth Painlevé transcendent and interpret it in terms of the ${\rm Sine}_2$ determinantal random point field. Further, we discuss a universality of the predicted power spectrum law and tabulate it (follow http://eugenekanzieper.faculty.hit.ac.il/data.html) for easy use by random-matrix-theory and quantum chaos practitioners.
