Out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) have been proposed as a probe of chaos in quantum mechanics, on the basis of their short-time exponential growth found in some particular set-ups. However, it has been seen that this behavior is not…
Predictability is ensured by causality while lost in chaos. To reconcile these two popular notions, we study chaos in geodesic motions in generic curved spacetimes with external potentials, where causality is controlled by a scalar…
Out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) can be used to probe how quickly a quantum system scrambles information when the initial conditions of the dynamics are changed. In sufficiently large quantum systems, one can extract from the OTOC the…
Quantum chaos cannot develop faster than $\lambda \leq 2 \pi/(\hbar \beta)$ for systems in thermal equilibrium [Maldacena, Shenker & Stanford, JHEP (2016)]. This `MSS bound' on the Lyapunov exponent $\lambda$ is set by the width of the…

The out-of-time ordered correlator (OTOC) is a measure of scrambling of quantum information. Scrambling is intuitively considered to be a significant feature of chaotic systems and thus the OTOC is widely used as a measure of chaos. For…

Out-of-time-ordered correlation functions (OTOC's) are presently being extensively debated as quantifiers of dynamical chaos in interacting quantum many-body systems. We argue that in quantum spin and fermionic systems, where all local…
