abstract
Krylov complexity measures operator growth with respect to a basis, which is adapted to the Heisenberg time evolution. The construction of that basis relies on the Lanczos algorithm, also known as the recursion method. The mathematics of Krylov complexity can be described in terms of orthogonal polynomials. We provide a pedagogical introduction to the subject and work out analytically a number of examples involving the classical orthogonal polynomials, polynomials of the Hahn class, and the Tricomi-Carlitz polynomials.

Wigner negativity in Krylov space stays O(1) or grows as t^{1/2} (without Hilbert-space scaling) in 2d CFTs, one-cut matrix models, and double-scaled SYK, indicating emergent semiclassicality.
Five-loop perturbative computation of DSSYK Krylov complexity equaling wormhole length in sine-dilaton gravity, with cumulants and all-order large-time resummation.
Krylov complexity's Taylor coefficients recursively determine all Lanczos coefficients, making it a complete descriptor of operator dynamics, with caveats for spread complexity.
Protected and few-body sectors in N=4 SYM exhibit integrable Krylov dynamics with a_n=2Mg and b_n→Mg, insufficient for testing gravitational universality of complexity growth; a finite-density program is proposed to test dependence only on coarse thermodynamic data.
A first-order phase transition in the Berkooz-Brukner-Jia-Mamroud interpolating model causes chord number, Krylov complexity, and operator size to switch discontinuously from chaotic (linear/exponential) to quasi-integrable (quadratic) growth.

On the Universality of Probe Complexity in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM

Probing the Chaos to Integrability Transition in Double-Scaled SYK
A first-order phase transition in the Berkooz-Brukner-Jia-Mamroud interpolating model causes chord number, Krylov complexity, and operator size to switch discontinuously from chaotic (linear/exponential) to quasi-integrable (quadratic) growth.
