In holographic confining backgrounds, temporal peak statistics of boundary correlators after local quenches approach the Gaussian Symplectic Ensemble for heavy operators and, in capped BTZ, even for massless ones.

abstract
In this Letter, we bring together two topics in the holographic correspondence - quantum chaos and quark-gluon plasma (QGP). We establish that the first relativistic correction to drag force experienced by a charge carrier moving through a thermal medium (for example, a quark in QGP) at a constant velocity is fixed by the butterfly velocity. Moreover, we show that this result is robust against stringy corrections and anisotropy. For the jet quenching parameter, we find that it is related to the butterfly velocity along the momentum broadening direction and temperature in the spirit of the ``Planckian bound''. This opens a way to the reconstruction of butterfly velocity of quark-gluon plasma and other strongly-coupled systems experimentally from rather simple observables.

From Confinement to Chaos in AdS/CFT Correspondence via Non-equilibrium Local States
In holographic confining backgrounds, temporal peak statistics of boundary correlators after local quenches approach the Gaussian Symplectic Ensemble for heavy operators and, in capped BTZ, even for massless ones.
