For any d, n ≥ 2 and 1/(min{n, d})

lg n). This lower bound matches the upper bound given by the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma [JL84]. Furthermore, our lower bound holds for nearly the full range of ε of interest, since there is always an isometric embedding into dimension min{d, n} (either the identity map, or projection onto span(X)). Previously such a lower bound was only known to hold against linear maps f, and not for such a wide range of parameters ε, n, d [LN16]. The best previously known lower bound for general f was m = Ω(ε
