We sketch the semiclassical core of a proof of the so-called Bohigas-Giannoni-Schmit conjecture: A dynamical system with full classical chaos has a quantum energy spectrum with universal fluctuations on the scale of the mean level spacing. We show how in the semiclassical limit all system specific properties fade away, leaving only ergodicity, hyperbolicity, and combinatorics as agents determining the contributions of pairs of classical periodic orbits to the quantum spectral form factor. The small-time form factor is thus reproduced semiclassically. Bridges between classical orbits and (the non-linear sigma model of) quantum field theory are built by revealing the contributing orbit pairs as topologically equivalent to Feynman diagrams.

  1. Controlled Chaos in 4D SCFTs

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Orbifolds of N=4 SYM produce SCFTs whose dilatation operator in a subsector is realized by a tunable spin chain whose eigenvalue statistics exhibit chaos for specific marginal couplings.

  2. Krylov Complexity in Mixed Phase Space

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The Krylov complexity peak height correlates with the Brody parameter in mixed-phase-space quantum systems, diminishing as the spectrum becomes Poissonian.

  3. Chaotic-Integrable Transition for Disordered Orbital Hatsugai-Kohmoto Model

    cond-mat.str-el 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Disordered orbital Hatsugai-Kohmoto model shows a transition from Poisson to GOE level statistics as interaction disorder increases, while OTOC plateau values fail to uniformly distinguish chaos across models.
