Krylov complexity has recently been proposed as a quantum probe of chaos. The Krylov exponent characterising the exponential growth of Krylov complexity is conjectured to upper-bound the Lyapunov exponent. We compute the Krylov and the…

We investigate the time evolution of the complexity of the operator by the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model with $N$ Majorana fermions. We follow Nielsen's idea of complexity geometry and geodesics thereof. We show that it is possible that the…

The quantum dynamics of a complex system can be efficiently described in Krylov space, the minimal subspace in which the dynamics unfolds. We apply the Krylov subspace method for Hamiltonian deformations, which provides a systematic way of…
