D Chowdhury, A Georges, O Parcollet… - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2022 - APS
This is a review of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model of compressible quantum many-
body systems without quasiparticle excitations, and its connections to various theoretical …

An introduction to the SYK model

V Rosenhaus - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract The Sachdev–Ye–Kitaev (SYK) model is a strongly coupled, quantum many-body
system that is chaotic, nearly conformally invariant, and exactly solvable. This remarkable …

Measuring out-of-time-order correlators on a nuclear magnetic resonance quantum simulator

J Li, R Fan, H Wang, B Ye, B Zeng, H Zhai, X Peng… - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
The idea of the out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) has recently emerged in the study of
both condensed matter systems and gravitational systems. It not only plays a key role in …

Thermoelectric transport in disordered metals without quasiparticles: The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models and holography

RA Davison, W Fu, A Georges, Y Gu, K Jensen… - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
We compute the thermodynamic properties of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) models of
fermions with a conserved fermion number Q. We extend a previously proposed Schwarzian …

Quantum information scrambling in a trapped-ion quantum simulator with tunable range interactions

MK Joshi, A Elben, B Vermersch, T Brydges, C Maier… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
In ergodic many-body quantum systems, locally encoded quantum information becomes, in
the course of time evolution, inaccessible to local measurements. This concept of …

Supersymmetric sachdev-ye-kitaev models

W Fu, D Gaiotto, J Maldacena, S Sachdev - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We discuss a supersymmetric generalization of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. These
are quantum mechanical models involving N Majorana fermions. The supercharge is given …

A generalization of sachdev-ye-kitaev

DJ Gross, V Rosenhaus - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract The SYK model: fermions with a q-body, Gaussian-random, all-to-all interaction, is
the first of a fascinating new class of solvable large N models. We generalize SYK to include …

Following our formulation in terms of bi-local collective fields with dynamical …

Power-law out of time order correlation functions in the SYK model

D Bagrets, A Altland, A Kamenev - Nuclear Physics B, 2017 - Elsevier
We evaluate the finite temperature partition sum and correlation functions of the Sachdev–
Ye–Kitaev (SYK) model. Starting from a recently proposed mapping of the SYK model onto …
