abstract

We study the scrambling properties of $(d+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic black holes. Using the eikonal approximation, we calculate out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) for a Rindler-AdS geometry with AdS radius $\ell$, which is dual to a $d-$dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) in hyperbolic space with temperature $T = 1/(2 \pi \ell)$. We find agreement between our results for OTOCs and previously reported CFT calculations. For more generic hyperbolic black holes, we compute the butterfly velocity in two different ways, namely: from shock waves and from a pole-skipping analysis, finding perfect agreement between the two methods. The butterfly velocity $v_B(T)$ nicely interpolates between the Rindler-AdS result $v_B(T=\frac{1}{2\pi \ell})=\frac{1}{d-1}$ and the planar result $v_B(T \gg \frac{1}{\ell})=\sqrt{\frac{d}{2(d-1)}}$.

  1. Probing Stringy Horizons with Pole-Skipping in Non-Maximal Chaotic Systems

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Pole-skipping points in non-maximally chaotic systems form Regge-like trajectories whose leading curve encodes the quantum Lyapunov exponent.

  2. Cosmological pole-skipping, shock waves and quantum chaotic dynamics of de Sitter horizons

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Pole-skipping in Schwarzschild-de Sitter predicts superluminal and imaginary butterfly velocities, confirmed by shock wave analysis, hinting at nonlocal and non-Hermitian dual dynamics.

  3. Pole-skipping without master variable and holographic superfluids

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A master-variable-free matrix formalism for pole-skipping, applied to holographic superfluids, shows that the massless order parameter produces no new hydrodynamic pole-skipping point.

  4. Quantum chaos and pole skipping in two-dimensional conformal perturbation theory

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A deformed 2D CFT's stress-tensor pole-skipping point shifts at O(lambda^2); at h=1/2 the shift matches the holographic butterfly velocity.

  5. A Dynamical Systems Framework for Reinforcement Learning Safety and Robustness Verification

    cs.AI 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    The claimed RL safety verification framework is absent from the manuscript; the body text is an unrelated high-energy physics paper about de Sitter horizon chaos.
