abstract

We study out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) of rotating BTZ black holes using two different approaches: the elastic eikonal gravity approximation, and the Chern-Simons formulations of 3-dimensional gravity. Within both methods the OTOC is given as a sum of two contributions, corresponding to left and right moving modes. The contributions have different Lyapunov exponents, $\lambda_L^{\pm}=\frac{2\pi}{\beta}\frac{1}{1\mp \ell \Omega}$, where $\Omega$ is the angular velocity and $\ell$ is the AdS radius. Since $\lambda_L^{-} \leq \frac{2\pi}{\beta} \leq \lambda_L^{+}$, there is an apparent contradiction with the chaos bound. We discuss how the result can be made consistent with the chaos bound if one views $\beta_{\pm}=\beta(1\mp \ell \Omega)$ as the effective inverse temperatures of the left and right moving modes.

  1. Cosmological pole-skipping, shock waves and quantum chaotic dynamics of de Sitter horizons

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Pole-skipping in Schwarzschild-de Sitter predicts superluminal and imaginary butterfly velocities, confirmed by shock wave analysis, hinting at nonlocal and non-Hermitian dual dynamics.

  2. Chaos in the butterfly cone

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The velocity-dependent Lyapunov exponent inside the butterfly cone satisfies λ(v) ≤ 2πT(1-|v|/v_B), a generalization of the chaos bound, saturated in SYK chains, holographic theories, and large N CFTs.

  3. Butterflies in $\textrm{T}\overline{\textrm{T}}$ deformed anomalous CFT$_2$

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    In TTbar-deformed anomalous CFT2 the chaos bound stays saturated while butterfly velocity depends nontrivially on deformation strength and anomaly, with a Hagedorn regime where the chaotic response turns complex.

  4. Butterfly effect and $\textrm{T}\overline{\textrm{T}}$-deformation

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For T\bar{T}-deformed BTZ black holes, the butterfly velocity is v_B = sqrt(1 - 8π² μ/β²), exceeding the Mezei-Stanford bound for μ<0 while the Lyapunov exponent stays at the maximal value 2π/β.

  5. Global Symmetry and Maximal Chaos

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For arbitrary-high-charge operators in a system with a global symmetry and chemical potential, the chaos bound weakens to 2πT/(1-|μ/μ_c|), where μ_c is the critical chemical potential.

  6. A Dynamical Systems Framework for Reinforcement Learning Safety and Robustness Verification

    cs.AI 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    The claimed RL safety verification framework is absent from the manuscript; the body text is an unrelated high-energy physics paper about de Sitter horizon chaos.
