We introduce and review a new complexity measure, called `Krylov complexity', which takes its origins in the field of quantum-chaotic dynamics, serving as a canonical measure of operator growth and spreading. Krylov complexity, underpinned…
Krylov complexity is a novel approach to study how an operator spreads over a specific basis. Recently, it has been stated that this quantity has a long-time saturation that depends on the amount of chaos in the system. Since this quantity…
