Entanglement Membrane in Chaotic Many-Body Systems

In certain analytically tractable quantum chaotic systems, the calculation of out-of-time-order correlation functions, entanglement entropies after a quench, and other related dynamical observables reduces to an effective theory of an “entanglement membrane” in spacetime. These tractable systems inv...
