Abstract

In arXiv:1707.02197, the authors considered the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model with quadratic perturbation (also known as mass-deformed SYK), and claimed that the quantum Lyapunov exponent would vanish in the regime of low temperature and small quartic coupling. We calculate the exponent exactly in that regime and show that it is nonzero.
