ArXiv preprint

We prove that $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$ has Kazhdan’s property (T) for every $n \geqslant 6$. Together with the previous result of Kaluba, Nowak, and Ozawa, this gives the same statement for $n \geqslant 5$. We also provide new, explicit lower bounds for the Kazhdan constants of $\operatorname{SAut}(F_n)$ (with $n \geqslant 6$) and of $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ (with $n \geqslant 3$) with respect to natural generating sets. In the latter case, these bounds improve upon previously known lower bounds whenever $n > 6$.
