| contents | Krylov complexity (K-complexity) is a measure of quantum state complexity that minimizes wavefunction spreading across all the possible bases. It serves as a key indicator of operator growth and quantum chaos. In this work, K-complexity and Arnoldi coefficients are applied to probe a variety of localization phenomena in the quantum kicked rotor system. We analyze four distinct localization scenarios -- ranging from compact localization effect arising from quantum anti-resonance to a weaker form of power-law localization -- each one exhibiting distinct K-complexity signatures and Arnoldi coefficient variations. In general, K-complexity not only indicates the degree of localization, but surprisingly also of the nature of localization. In particular, the long-time behaviour of K-complexity and the wavefunction evolution on Krylov chain can distinguish various types of observed localization in QKR. In particular, the time-averaged K-complexity and scaling of the variance of Arnoldi coefficients with effective Planck's constant can distinguish the localization effects induced by the classical regular phase structures and the dynamical localization arising from quantum interferences. Further, the Arnoldi coefficient is shown to capture the transition from integrability to chaos as well. This work shows how localization dynamics manifests in the Krylov basis. |
