We argue for an exponential bound characterizing the chaotic properties of modular Hamiltonian flow of QFT subsystems. In holographic theories, maximal modular chaos is reflected in the local Poincare symmetry about a Ryu-Takayanagi surface. Generators of null deformations of the bulk extremal surface map to modular scrambling modes -positive CFT operators saturating the bound- and their algebra probes the bulk Riemann curvature, clarifying the modular Berry curvature proposal of arXiv:1903.04493.

  1. Probing Evaporating Black Holes with Modular Flow in SYK

    hep-th 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Modular flow in SYK models coupled to a bath reveals singularities allowing reconstruction of bulk flow past the horizon in two-sided AdS2 black holes.

  2. The mini-Page Curve in Cosmology

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.5

    In 2D centaur geometries the entropy difference of a modular-conjugate Hawking-pair probe traces an inverse mini-Page curve that bottoms at τ≈β/8, marking when information begins to leave the cosmological horizon.

    hep-th 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A semi-classical symplectic two-form is defined as the sum of the gravitational symplectic form and the Berry curvature of the quantum matter state; it is shown to be independent of the Cauchy slice and to satisfy a q...
