Abstract:
Recently, Kitaev has proposed a variant of
the Sachdev-Ye model as a solvable model
of holography. The SYK model correctly
reproduces the Lyapunov exponent of a
black hole, as computed from an out-of-time
order 4-pt function. We will discuss some
aspects of the SYK model. We will also
revisit older matrix models, such as the one
of Iizuka, Okuda, and Polchinski, and study
the 4-pt function.
