Effective field theory for chaotic CFTs

Haehl, Felix M., Rozali, Moshe·2018·Journal of High Energy Physics

Abstract

We derive an effective field theory for general chaotic two-dimensional conformal field theories with a large central charge. The theory is a specific and calculable instance of a more general framework recently proposed in [1]. We discuss the gauge symmetries of the model and how they relate to the Lyapunov behaviour of certain correlators. We calculate the out-of-time-ordered correlators diagnosing quantum chaos, as well as certain more fine-grained higher-point generalizations, using our Lorentzian effective field theory. We comment on potential future applications of the effective theory to real-time thermal physics and conformal field theory.

Figure 1 Contours in the complex ω -plane, defining the retarded, advanced, and Keldysh (symmetric) correlation functions, respectively. The contour C K = C R -C A . The red crosses denote the poles of the integrand at ω ∈ {-i, 0 ± iε, i } , where ε > 0 is a small regulator that enforces consistent boundary conditions.

Figure 2 We choose the k -OTO contour in the complex time plane to be such that all legs are equally separated by ϕ in the imaginary direction. We often set either ϕ = π k (equal separations) or ϕ = δ ≪ 1 (small separation limit). The legs of the contour are labelled by indices α, β, . . . = 1 , . . . , 2 k .

Figure 4 Illustration of the arrangement of operators in our 2 k -point observable F 2 k , for the case k = 5. It provides a generalization of the familiar 4-point OTOC, which has the property that the associated time of exponential growth (which we call as k -scrambling time t ( k ) ∗ ) is maximal: t ( k ) ∗ = ( k -1) log c . The red solid lines indicate bilocal operators B ( h, ¯ h ) . The red wiggly lines schematically indicate the (maximally braided) propagation of the scrambling mode ϵ .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
