Recently, it is shown that many Greens functions are not unique at special points in complex momentum space using AdS/CFT. This phenomenon is similar to the pole-skipping in holographic chaos, and the special points are typically located at $omega_n = -(2pi T)ni$ with appropriate values of complex wave number $q_n$. We study finite-coupling corrections to special points. As examples, we consider four-derivative corrections to gravitational perturbations and four-dimensional Maxwell perturbations. While $omega_n$ is uncorrected, $q_n$ is corrected at finite coupling. Some special points disappear at particular values of higher-derivative couplings. Special point locations of the Maxwell scalar and vector modes are related to each other by the electromagnetic duality.

We study the pole-skipping phenomenon of the scalar retarded Greens function in the rotating BTZ black hole background. In the static case, the pole-skipping points are typically located at negative imaginary Matsubara frequencies $omega=-(2pi T)ni$ with appropriate values of complex wave number $q$. But, in a $(1+1)$-dimensional CFT, one can introduce temperatures for left-moving and right-moving sectors independently. As a result, the pole-skipping points $omega$ depend both on left and right temperatures in the rotating background. In the extreme limit, the pole-skipping does not occur in general. But in a special case, the pole-skipping does occur even in the extreme limit, and the pole-skipping points are given by right Matsubara frequencies.
We investigate the pole-skipping phenomenon in holographic chaos. According to the pole-skipping, the energy-density Greens function is not unique at a special point in complex momentum plane. This arises because the bulk field equation has two regular near-horizon solutions at the special point. We study the regularity of two solutions more carefully using curvature invariants. In the upper-half $omega$-plane, one solution, which is normally interpreted as the outgoing mode, is in general singular at the future horizon and produces a curvature singularity. However, at the special point, both solutions are indeed regular. Moreover, the incoming mode cannot be uniquely defined at the special point due to these solutions.
In large-$N_c$ conformal field theories with classical holographic duals, inverse coupling constant corrections are obtained by considering higher-derivative terms in the corresponding gravity theory. In this work, we use type IIB supergravity and bottom-up Gauss-Bonnet gravity to study the dynamics of boost-invariant Bjorken hydrodynamics at finite coupling. We analyze the time-dependent decay properties of non-local observables (scalar two-point functions and Wilson loops) probing the different models of Bjorken flow and show that they can be expressed generically in terms of a few field theory parameters. In addition, our computations provide an analytically quantifiable probe of the coupling-dependent validity of hydrodynamics at early times in a simple model of heavy-ion collisions, which is an observable closely analogous to the hydrodynamization time of a quark-gluon plasma. We find that to third order in the hydrodynamic expansion, the convergence of hydrodynamics is improved and that generically, as expected from field theory considerations and recent holographic results, the applicability of hydrodynamics is delayed as the field theory coupling decreases.
We investigate solutions of the classical Einstein or supergravity equations that solve any set of quantum corrected Einstein equations in which the Einstein tensor plus a multiple of the metric is equated to a symmetric conserved tensor $T_{mu u}$ constructed from sums of terms the involving contractions of the metric and powers of arbitrary covariant derivatives of the curvature tensor. A classical solution, such as an Einstein metric, is called {it universal} if, when evaluated on that Einstein metric, $T_{mu u}$ is a multiple of the metric. A Ricci flat classical solution is called {it strongly universal} if, when evaluated on that Ricci flat metric, $T_{mu u}$ vanishes. It is well known that pp-waves in four spacetime dimensions are strongly universal. We focus attention on a natural generalisation; Einstein metrics with holonomy ${rm Sim} (n-2)$ in which all scalar invariants are zero or constant. In four dimensions we demonstrate that the generalised Ghanam-Thompson metric is weakly universal and that the Goldberg-Kerr metric is strongly universal; indeed, we show that universality extends to all 4-dimensional ${rm Sim}(2)$ Einstein metrics. We also discuss generalizations to higher dimensions.
We show that a large class of null electromagnetic fields are immune to any modifications of Maxwells equations in the form of arbitrary powers and derivatives of the field strength. These are thus exact solutions to virtually any generalized classical electrodynamics containing both non-linear terms and higher derivatives, including, e.g., non-linear electrodynamics as well as QED- and string-motivated effective theories. This result holds not only in a flat or (anti-)de Sitter background, but also in a larger subset of Kundt spacetimes, which allow for the presence of aligned gravitational waves and pure radiation.
