Information scrambling of the dilute Bose gas at low temperature

Abstract

We calculate the quantum Lyapunov exponent λL\lambda_L and butterfly velocity vBv_B in the dilute Bose gas at temperature TT deep in the Bose-Einstein condensation phase. The generalized Boltzmann equation approach is used for calculating out-of-time ordered correlators, from which λL\lambda_L and vBv_B are extracted. At very low temperature where elementary excitations are phonon-like, we find λLT5\lambda_L\propto T^5 and vBcv_B\sim c, the sound velocity. At relatively high temperature, we have λLT\lambda_L\propto T and vBc(T/T)0.23v_B\sim c(T/T_*)^{0.23}. We find λL\lambda_L is always comparable to the damping rate of a quasiparticle, whose energy depends suitably on TT. The chaos diffusion constant DL=vB2/λLD_L=v_B^2/\lambda_L, on the other hand, differs from the energy diffusion constant DED_E. We find DEDLD_E\ll D_L at very low temperature and DEDLD_E\gg D_L otherwise.
