Matrix Models for Eigenstate Thermalization

We develop a class of matrix models that implement and formalize the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) and point out that, in general, these models must contain non-Gaussian corrections in order to correctly capture thermal mean-field theory or to capture nontrivial out-of-time-order correl...
