Scrambling in Hyperbolic Black Holes: shock waves and pole-skipping

arXiv:1907.08030 · doi:10.1007/JHEP10(2019)257

Abstract

We study the scrambling properties of -dimensional hyperbolic black holes. Using the eikonal approximation, we calculate out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) for a Rindler-AdS geometry with AdS radius , which is dual to a dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) in hyperbolic space with temperature . We find agreement between our results for OTOCs and previously reported CFT calculations. For more generic hyperbolic black holes, we compute the butterfly velocity in two different ways, namely: from shock waves and from a pole-skipping analysis, finding perfect agreement between the two methods. The butterfly velocity nicely interpolates between the Rindler-AdS result and the planar result .
