Quantum chaos in a weakly-coupled field theory with nonlocality
Willy Fischler, Tyler Guglielmo, Phuc Nguyen
In order to study the chaotic behavior of a system with non-local interactions, we will consider weakly coupled non-commutative field theories. We compute the Lyapunov exponent of…

Scrambling and the black hole atmosphere
Ted Jacobson, Phuc Nguyen
We argue that the scrambling time is the same, up to a numerical factor in three or more spacetime dimensions, as the time for the atmosphere to fall across the horizon or escape,…

Light-ray moments as endpoint contributions to modular Hamiltonians
Daniel Kabat, Gilad Lifschytz, Phuc Nguyen +1
We consider excited states in a CFT, obtained by applying a weak unitary perturbation to the vacuum. The perturbation is generated by the integral of a local operator of…
