Random matrix theory of integrability-to-chaos transition

Ben Craps, Marine De Clerck, Oleg Evnin +1

The statistics of gaps between quantum energy levels is a hallmark criterion in quantum chaos and quantum integrability studies. The relevant distributions corresponding to exactly…

Area terms and entanglement entropy in the string theory

Ben Craps, Marius Gerbershagen, Maxim Pavlov +1

We study entanglement entropy in the low-energy effective field theory of two-dimensional string theory as well as in the singlet sector of the dual matrix quantum mechanics.…

Unified theory of local integrals of motion

Ben Craps, Oleg Evnin, Dmitry Kovrizhin +1

Many-body localization (MBL) is understood theoretically through the existence of an extensive number of local integrals of motion (LIOMs). These conserved quantities are related t…

Explicit Connections Between Krylov and Nielsen Complexity

Ben Craps, Gabriele Pascuzzi, Juan F. Pedraza +2

We establish a direct correspondence between Krylov and Nielsen complexity by choosing the Krylov basis to be part of the elementary gate set of Nielsen geometry and selecting a Ni…

Counting microstates of out-of-equilibrium black hole fluctuations

Vijay Balasubramanian, Ben Craps, Juan Hernandez +2

We construct and count the microstates of out-of-equilibrium eternal AdS black holes in which a shell carrying an order one fraction of the black hole mass is emitted from the past…

Multiseed Krylov complexity

Ben Craps, Oleg Evnin, Gabriele Pascuzzi

Krylov complexity is an attractive measure for the rate at which quantum operators spread in the space of all possible operators under dynamical evolution. One expects that its lat…
