• Title: Information Scrambling and the Correspondence of Entanglement- and Operator Dynamics in Systems with Nonlocal Interactions
• Authors: Darvin Wanisch, Juan Diego Arias Espinoza and Stephan Fritzsche
• Abstract summary: Motivated by recent works on spin systems with nonlocal interactions, we study information scrambling in different variants of the Ising model. Our work reveals that nonlocal interactions can induce operator dynamics not precisely captured by out-of-time-order correlators. A recently proposed microscopic model for fast scrambling does not show this slowdown, which uncovers a distinct analogy between a local operator under unitary evolution and the entanglement entropy following a quantum quench.

• Abstract: How fast quantum information scrambles such that it becomes inaccessible by local probes turns out to be central to various fields. Motivated by recent works on spin systems with nonlocal interactions, we study information scrambling in different variants of the Ising model. Our work reveals that nonlocal interactions can induce operator dynamics not precisely captured by out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs). In particular, the operator size exhibits a slowdown in systems with generic powerlaw interactions despite a highly nonlinear lightcone. A recently proposed microscopic model for fast scrambling does not show this slowdown, which uncovers a distinct analogy between a local operator under unitary evolution and the entanglement entropy following a quantum quench. Our work gives new insights on scrambling properties of systems in reach of current quantum simulation platforms and complements results on possibly observing features of quantum gravity in the laboratory.

• Inferring Relational Potentials in Interacting Systems [56.498417950856904]
  We propose Neural Interaction Inference with Potentials (NIIP) as an alternative approach to discover such interactions. NIIP assigns low energy to the subset of trajectories which respect the relational constraints observed. It allows trajectory manipulation, such as interchanging interaction types across separately trained models, as well as trajectory forecasting.

  We provide bounds on temporal fluctuations around the infinite-time average of out-of-time-ordered and time-ordered correlators of many-body quantum systems without energy gap degeneracies. For physical initial states, our bounds predict the exponential decay of the temporal fluctuations as a function of the system size.
