There has been a lot of academic research in to sleep recently (notably by Oxford academic Russell Foster), but for those of us who struggle with the old shut-eye (and age doesn't help, we warn you) then how about Max Richter's 2015 Sleep, an eight and a half hour concept album based around the neuroscience of sleep. Its companion album, From Sleep, from which this track is taken, is only one hour long. The quick nap version, if you like.

Bounds on quantum evolution complexity via lattice cryptography
Abstract
I will present results from arXiv:2202.13924, where we studied the difference between integrable and chaotic motion in quantum theory as manifested by the complexity of the corresponding evolution operators. The notion of complexity of interest to us will be Nielsen’s complexity applied to the time-dependent evolution operator of the quantum systems. I will review Nielsen’s complexity, discuss the difficulties associated with this definition and introduce a simplified approach which appears to retain non-trivial information about the integrable properties of the dynamical systems.
