The passage around this formula

For the qubit, returned means: there exists a recovery channel $\mathcal R$ , built from quantum operations an agent holding both the full early radiation R and a further batch of radiation $C_t$ collected up to time t can actually perform, whose entanglement fidelity to the identity channel on A is within $\epsilon$ of perfect, $\epsilon_L(t) \;=\; \min_{\mathcal R}\Big[\,1 - F_e\big(\mathcal R \circ \mathcal N_t,\; \mathrm{id}\big)\,\Big], \qquad t_L(\epsilon) \;=\; \min\{\,t : \epsilon_L(t) \le \epsilon\,\}$ . $\mathcal N_t$ is the effective channel from A to R\! $\cup$ \! $C_t$ induced by the hole’s own scrambling dynamics up to time t ; $\epsilon_L(t)$ is a dimensionless number in…
