We solve for the exact energy spectrum, 2-point and 4-point functions of the complex SYK model, in the double scaling limit at all energy scales. This model has a $U(1)$ global symmetry. The analysis shows how to incorporate a chemical…

The Maldacena-Qi model describes two copies of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model coupled with an additional coupling, and is dual to the Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity which exhibits an eternal traversable wormhole in the low-temperature limit. In…
