Chaos-Integrability Transition in the BPS Subspace of the $\mathcal{N}=2$ SYK Model

We study chaos-integrability transition purely within a BPS subspace of a specific supersymmetric model that interpolates between the chaotic $\mathcal{N}=2$ SYK model and an integrable $\mathcal{N}=2$ "commuting" SYK model. Using the framework of BPS chaos, we analyze the spectrum of an operator projected onto the BPS subspace. We numerically find that its spectral statistics exhibit random-matrix behavior near the SYK limit and smoothly transitions to Poisson statistics near the integrable limit. Our results provide a direct example of a chaos-integrability crossover diagnosed solely from BPS states.

Universal Time Evolution of Holographic and Quantum Complexity

Holographic complexity, as the bulk dual of quantum complexity, encodes the geometric structure of black hole interiors. Motivated by the complexity=anything proposal, we introduce the spectral representation for generating functions associated with codimension-one and codimension-zero holographic complexity measures. These generating functions exhibit a universal slope-ramp-plateau structure, analogous to the spectral form factor in chaotic quantum systems. In such systems, quantum complexity evolves universally, displaying long-time linear growth followed by saturation at late times. By employing the generating function formalism, we demonstrate that this universal behavior originates from random matrix universality in spectral statistics and from a particular pole structure of the matrix elements of the generating functions in the energy eigenbasis. Using the residue theorem, we prove that the existence of this pole structure is both a necessary and sufficient condition for the linear growth of complexity measures. Furthermore, we show that the late-time saturation plateau arises directly from the spectral level repulsion, a hallmark of quantum chaos.

Notes on Rindler wave packets in Minkowski spacetime

We consider wave packets of a massless scalar field that have well-localized Rindler energy, and examine how their energy appears to a Minkowski observer to study how the classical gravitational red-shift formula is modified quantum mechanically. We derive, by using the saddle point approximation, an analytic expression for the Minkowski momentum distribution of such Rindler wave packets. We find a universal lower bound on the uncertainty in the Minkowski momentum; the momentum distribution can never become arbitrarily sharp.

The LSZ reduction formula from homotopy algebras

When we describe string field theory or quantum field theory in terms of homotopy algebras, on-shell scattering amplitudes at the tree level are obtained by the formula based on the minimal model. While this formula can be extended to loop amplitudes and it generates the correct set of Feynman diagrams, the evaluation of each Feynman diagram may fail to be well defined because of mass renormalization. Furthermore, this formula does not explain why we use Feynman propagators in loops. In this paper we first present the LSZ reduction formula in terms of quantum $A_\infty$ algebras, which provides a well-defined prescription for loop amplitudes. We then present a formula for connected correlation functions based on quantum $A_\infty$ algebras, and we use it to discuss the relation between the LSZ reduction formula and the extension of the minimal model to loop amplitudes.

Non-perturbative Overlaps in JT Gravity: From Spectral Form Factor to Generating Functions of Complexity

The interplay between black hole interior dynamics and quantum chaos provides a crucial framework for probing quantum effects in quantum gravity. In this work, we investigate non-perturbative overlaps in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity to uncover universal signatures of quantum chaos and quantum complexity. Taking advantage of universal spectral correlators from random matrix theory, we compute the overlaps between the thermofield double (TFD) state and two distinct classes of states: fixed-length states, which encode maximal volume slices, and time-shifted TFD states. The squared overlaps naturally define probability distributions that quantify the expectation values of gravitational observables. Central to our results is the introduction of generating functions for quantum complexity measures, such as $\langle e^{-\alpha \ell} \rangle$. The time evolution of these generating functions exhibits the universal slope-ramp-plateau structure, mirroring the behavior of the spectral form factor (SFF). Using generating functions, we further demonstrate that the universal time evolution of complexity for chaotic systems, which is characterized by a linear growth followed by a late-time plateau, arises from the disappearance of the linear ramp as the regularization parameter $\alpha$ decreases. With regard to the time-shifted TFD state, we derive a surprising result: the expectation value of the time shift, which classically grows linearly, vanishes when non-perturbative quantum corrections are incorporated. This cancellation highlights a fundamental distinction between semiclassical and quantum gravitational descriptions of the black hole interior. All our findings establish generating functions as powerful probes of quantum complexity and chaos in gravitational and quantum systems.
