Spectral Lyapunov exponents in chaotic and localized many-body quantum systems

We consider the spectral statistics of the Floquet operator for disordered, periodically driven spin chains in their quantum chaotic and many-body localized (MBL) phases. The spectral statistics are characterized by the traces of powers t of the Floquet operator, and our approach hinges on the fact...
