Upper bound, last-listed row
| $0.644421\ldots$ | [dLOV2014](#dLOV2014) | [dLOV2014](#dLOV2014) lists the dimension-$4$ **center density** upper bound $\delta_4\le 0.130587$ (Table 1). Converting via $\Delta_4=\operatorname{vol}(B)\,\delta_4$ gives $\Delta_4\le \operatorname{vol}(B)\cdot 0.130587 = (\pi^2/2)\cdot 0.130587\approx 0.644421$.
