Explore the fascinating intersection of chaos theory, quantum systems, and black holes in this 1-hour 9-minute lecture by Alexei Kitaev at BIMSA. Delve into the concept of chaotic systems, where minute perturbations can significantly impact future trajectories. Discover how these principles apply to quantum mechanics and black holes, and learn about the challenges of experimentally testing chaos in complex systems. Examine the innovative approach of using thought experiments to reverse time and access the event horizon of black holes. Uncover the surprising connection between near-horizon dynamics and the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, offering new insights into the nature of quantum chaos and its implications for our understanding of the universe.
