A class of tensor models were recently outlined as potentially calculable examples of holography: their perturbative large-$N$ behavior is similar to the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, but they are fully quantum mechanical (in the sense…
We present an exact solution in the large-$N$ limit of the L\'{e}vy Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (LSYK) model introduced in Ref. [1], wherein the couplings are drawn from a L\'{e}vy Stable distribution parameterized by a tail exponent $\mu \in [0,…
We study the chaos exponent of some variants of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, namely, the $\Ns=1$ supersymmetry (SUSY)-SYK model and its sibling, the $(N|M)$-SYK model which is not supersymmetric in general, for arbitrary interaction…
We propose an extension of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model that exhibits a quantum phase transition from the previously identified non-Fermi liquid fixed point to a Fermi liquid like state, while still allowing an exact solution in a…
