The Spectral Form Factor (SFF) measures the fluctuations in the density of states of a Hamiltonian. We consider a generalization of the SFF called the Loschmidt Spectral Form Factor, $\textrm{tr}[e^{iH_1T}]\textrm{tr} [e^{-iH_2T}]$, for…

In the theory of disordered systems the spectral form factor $S(\tau)$, the Fourier transform of the two-level correlation function with respect to the difference of energies, is linear for $\tau<\tau_c$ and constant for $\tau>\tau_c$. Near…
