Localized chaos due to rotating shock waves in Kerr-AdS black holes and their ultraspinning version

The butterfly velocity of four-dimensional rotating charged asymptotically AdS black hole is calculated to probe chaos using localized rotating shock waves. In this work, we obtain the angular momentum dependence of the butterfly velocity due to rotation in the shock wave probes. In general, the angular momentum \(\mathcal{L}\) of the shock waves increases the butterfly velocity. The localized shocks also generate butterfly velocities which vanish when we approach extremality, indicating no entanglement spread near extremality. One of the butterfly velocity modes is well bounded by both the speed of light and the Schwarzschild-AdS result, while the other may become superluminal. Aside from the logarithmic behavior of the scrambling time which indicates chaos, the Lyapunov exponent is also positive and bounded by \(\kappa=2\pi T_H/(1-\mu\mathcal{L})\). The Kerr-NUT-AdS and Kerr-Sen-AdS solutions and their ultraspinning versions are used as examples to attain a better understanding of the chaotic phenomena in rotating black holes, especially those with extra conserved charges.
