Out-of-time-order correlators and quantum chaos

I García-Mata, RA Jalabert, DA Wisniacki - arXiv preprint arXiv:2209.07965, 2022 - arxiv.org
Quantum Chaos has originally emerged as the field which studies how the properties of
classical chaotic systems arise in their quantum counterparts. The growing interest in …

Out-of-time-order correlators in quantum mechanics

K Hashimoto, K Murata, R Yoshii - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract The out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) is considered as a measure of quantum
chaos. We formulate how to calculate the OTOC for quantum mechanics with a general …

Quantum butterfly effect in weakly interacting diffusive metals

AA Patel, D Chowdhury, S Sachdev, B Swingle - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
We study scrambling, an avatar of chaos, in a weakly interacting metal in the presence of
random potential disorder. It is well known that charge and heat spread via diffusion in such …

Quasiprobability behind the out-of-time-ordered correlator

N Yunger Halpern, B Swingle, J Dressel - Physical Review A, 2018 - APS
Two topics, evolving rapidly in separate fields, were combined recently: the out-of-time-
ordered correlator (OTOC) signals quantum-information scrambling in many-body systems …

Onset of many-body chaos in the model

D Chowdhury, B Swingle - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
The growth of commutators of initially commuting local operators diagnoses the onset of
chaos in quantum many-body systems. We compute such commutators of local field …

Quantum Dynamics in Krylov Space: Methods and Applications

P Nandy, AS Matsoukas-Roubeas… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
The dynamics of quantum systems unfolds within a subspace of the state space or operator
space, known as the Krylov space. This review presents the use of Krylov subspace …

Resilience of scrambling measurements

B Swingle, N Yunger Halpern - Physical Review A, 2018 - APS
Most experimental protocols for measuring scrambling require time evolution with a
Hamiltonian and with the Hamiltonian's negative counterpart (backward time evolution) …

Quantum bounds and fluctuation-dissipation relations

S Pappalardi, L Foini, J Kurchan - SciPost Physics, 2022 - scipost.org
In recent years, there has been intense attention on the constraints posed by quantum
mechanics on the dynamics of the correlation at low temperatures, triggered by the …

Quantum bounds on the generalized lyapunov exponents

S Pappalardi, J Kurchan - Entropy, 2023 - mdpi.com
We discuss the generalized quantum Lyapunov exponents L q, defined from the growth rate
of the powers of the square commutator. They may be related to an appropriately defined …

Nonlinear sigma model approach to many-body quantum chaos: Regularized and unregularized out-of-time-ordered correlators

Y Liao, V Galitski - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
The out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) have been proposed and widely used recently
as a tool to define and describe many-body quantum chaos. Here, we develop the Keldysh …
