We study the chaotic dynamics of spinless extended bodies in a wide class of spherically symmetric spacetimes, which encompasses black-hole scenarios in many modified theories of gravity. We show that a spherically symmetric pulsating ball…

The aim of this note is to explore Susskind's proposal [arXiv:1802.01198] on the connection between operator size in chaotic theories and the bulk momentum of a particle falling into black holes (see also [arXiv:1804.04156, 1806.05574,…
In this work, we first examine the onset of thermodynamic chaos in Hayward AdS black holes with string fluids, emphasizing the effects of temporal and spatially periodic perturbations. We apply Melnikov's approach to examine the perturbed…
