• Abstract: We calculate the third-order out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) of a simple harmonic oscillator with an additional quartic interaction using the second quantization method. We obtain analytic relations for the spectrum, Fock space states, and matrix elements of the coordinate, which are then used to numerically evaluate the OTOC. We observe that after the scrambling, the OTOC becomes a fluctuation around a saturation point at later times, which is associated with quantum chaotic behavior in systems that exhibit chaos. We analyze the early-time properties of the OTOC and find that in systems with sufficiently strong quartic interactions, an exponential growth curve fitting over a long time window clearly emerges in the third-order perturbation

  Out-of-time-ordered-correlators (OTOCs) have been suggested as a means to diagnose chaotic behavior in quantum mechanical systems. I study OTOCs for the inverted anharmonic (pure quartic) oscillator in quantum mechanics. For higher temperature, OTOCs seem to exhibit saturation consistent with a value of $-2 langle x2 rangle_T langle p2 rangle_T$ at late times.

  We investigate the onset of chaos in a periodically kicked Dicke model (KDM) using the out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) as a diagnostic tool. In the large spin limit, the classical Hamiltonian map is constructed, which allows us to investigate the corresponding phase space dynamics. The relevance of the present study in the context of ongoing cold atom experiments is also discussed.
