Krylov correlators in sl(2,R) models: exact results and holographic complexity

A bstract In holography, the complexity-momentum correspondence relates the increasing momentum of a point particle falling into an eternal black hole to the rate of growth of the Krylov complexity of the dual boundary state, a conjecture established exactly for the BTZ black hole in AdS 3 at the semiclassical level. We examine possible extensions of the correspondence by considering boundary higher Krylov complexities and Krylov correlators encoding fluctuations and temporal correlations of the spreading quantum state. To this end, we derive exact results for Krylov correlators in quantum systems with sl(2,R) sl 2 ℝ or Heisenberg-Weyl symmetry and apply them to the complexity-momentum correspondence. We show that certain out-of-time-ordered correlators of two or more Krylov speed operators at different times are proportional to combinations of the proper radial momenta of a particle falling into the BTZ black hole in AdS 3 , evaluated at those times. This represents a first step in the generalization of the original complexity-momentum relation.
