Chaos in Matrix Gauge Theories with Massive Deformations
Starting from an matrix quantum mechanics model with massive
deformation terms and by introducing an ansatz configuration involving fuzzy
four- and two-spheres with collective time dependence, we obtain a family of
effective Hamiltonians, and examine
their emerging chaotic dynamics. Through numerical work, we model the variation
of the largest Lyapunov exponents as a function of the energy and find that
they vary either as or , where
stand for the energies of the unstable fixed points of the phase
space. We use our results to put upper bounds on the temperature above which
the Lyapunov exponents comply with the Maldacena-Shenker-Stanford (MSS) bound,
, and below which it will eventually be violated.Comment: 17 pages, 2 figures, 5 tables, Talk given by S.

Chaotic Dynamics of the Mass Deformed ABJM Model
We explore the chaotic dynamics of the mass deformed ABJM model. To do so, we
first perform a dimensional reduction of this model from - to
-dimensions, considering that the fields are spatially uniform. Working in
the 't Hooft limit and tracing over ansatz configurations involving fuzzy two
spheres, which are described in terms of the GRVV matrices with collective time
dependence, we obtain a family of reduced effective Lagrangians and demonstrate
that they have chaotic dynamics by computing the associated Lyapunov spectrum.
In particular, we analyze in detail, how the largest Lyapunov exponent,
, changes as a function of . Depending on the structure of
the effective potentials, we find either or
, where is a
constant determined in terms of the Chern-Simons coupling , the mass ,
and the matrix level . Using our results, we investigate the temperature
dependence of the largest Lyapunov exponents and give upper bounds on the
temperature above which values comply with the MSS bound, , and below which it will eventually be violated.Comment: 35 pages, 8 figure
