Scrambling of information in a quantum many-body system, quantified by the out-of-time-ordered correlator (OTOC), is a key manifestation of quantum chaos. A regime of exponential growth in the OTOC, characterized by a Lyapunov exponent, has…

We study upper bounds on the growth of operator entropy $S_K$ in operator growth. Using uncertainty relation, we first prove a dispersion bound on the growth rate $|\partial_t S_K|\leq 2b_1 \Delta S_K$, where $b_1$ is the first Lanczos…
We present a hypothesis for the universal properties of operators evolving under Hamiltonian dynamics in many-body systems. The hypothesis states that successive Lanczos coefficients in the continued fraction expansion of the Green's…
