• Abstract summary: We provide an exact analytic solution of the time kernel equation (TKE) for a special class of potentials satisfying a specific separability condition. We show that the eigenfunctions of the constructed operator exhibit unitary arrival at the intended arrival point at a time equal to their corresponding eigenvalue. We find that the CPTOA operator possesses better unitary dynamics over the Weyl-quantized one within numerical accuracy.

• Abstract: The construction of time of arrival (TOA) operators canonically conjugate to the system Hamiltonian entails finding the solution of a specific second-order partial differential equation called the time kernel equation (TKE). An expanded iterative solution of the TKE has been obtained recently in [Eur. Phys. J. Plus \textbf{138}, 153 (2023)] but is generally intractable to be useful for arbitrary nonlinear potentials. In this work, we provide an exact analytic solution of the TKE for a special class of potentials satisfying a specific separability condition. The solution enables us to investigate the time evolution of the eigenfunctions of the conjugacy-preserving TOA operators (CPTOA) by coarse graining methods and spatial confinement. We show that the eigenfunctions of the constructed operator exhibit unitary arrival at the intended arrival point at a time equal to their corresponding eigenvalue. Moreover, we examine whether there is a discernible difference in the dynamics between the TOA operators constructed by quantization and those independent of quantization for specific interaction potentials. We find that the CPTOA operator possesses better unitary dynamics over the Weyl-quantized one within numerical accuracy. This allows us determine the role of the canonical commutation relation between time and energy on the observed dynamics of time of arrival operators.

  This work explores the behaviour of a noncommutative harmonic oscillator in a time-dependent background. We examine the system when expressed in terms of commutative variables, utilizing a generalized form of the standard Bopp-shift relations. Our study is consistent with the findings in [1], specifically in a particular limit where the coordinate mapping relations reduce to the standard Bopp-shift relations.

  Scrambling is a key concept in the analysis of nonequilibrium properties of quantum many-body systems. We study the structure of the expansion coefficients treated as a coarse-grained probability distribution in the space of operators. We show that the long-time properties of the operator distribution display common features across these cases.

We show explicitly that the OTOC is indeed a precise tool to explore the fine details of the Eigenstate Thermalisation Hypothesis (ETH) We provide an estimation of the finite-size scaling of $omega_textrmGOE$ for the general class of observables composed of sums of local operators in the infinite-temperature regime.

  The OTOC-RE theorem relates the OTOCs summed over a complete base of operators to the second Renyi entropy. We show that the sum over a small set of relevant operators, is enough in order to obtain a very good approximation for the entropy. In turn, this provides with an alternative natural indicator of complexity, i.e. the scaling of the number of relevant operators with time.
