We consider a non-interacting many-fermion system populating levels of a unitary random matrix ensemble (equivalent to the q=2 complex Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model) - a generic model of single-particle quantum chaos. We study the corresponding many-particle level statistics by calculating the spectral form factor analytically using algebraic methods of random matrix theory, and match it with an exact numerical simulation. Despite the integrability of the theory, the many-body spectral rigidity is found to have a surprisingly rich landscape. In particular, we find a residual repulsion of distant many-body levels stemming from single-particle chaos, together with islands of level attraction. These results are encoded in an exponential ramp in the spectral form-factor, which we show to be a universal feature of non-ergodic many-fermion systems embedded in a chaotic medium.

Crystalline Spectral Form Factors
Strong level repulsion produces damped crystalline oscillations of the spectral form factor, with a Debye-Waller suppression, a new plateau time scale t* ≈ t_H sqrt(β/4), and predictable derivative singularities.

The moments of the spectral form factor in SYK
SYK spectral form factor moments match random matrix statistics at low order, with a k^2/N^{q-2} correction from spectral edge fluctuations that is amplified by sparsification.
