q-Askey Deformations of Double-Scaled SYK
Sergio E. Aguilar-Gutierrez, Trivko Kukolj, Josef Seitz
We construct families of deformations of the double-scaled SYK (DSSYK) model and investigate their bulk interpretation. We introduce microscopic deformations of the SYK model which…

Comments on Class S(YK)
Micha Berkooz, Trivko Kukolj, Josef Seitz
We present a DSSYK-like interpretation of the Schur half-indices of gauge theories with matter, in the presence of fundamental Wilson lines. The Schur half-…

Four-point functions and contact terms from higher-spin Ward identities of Chern-Simons-matter theory
Trivko Kukolj
Large quasifermionic () Chern-Simons-matter theories exhibit weakly-broken higher-spin symmetry and contain an infinite-dimensional algebra of almost-conserved higher-spin…
