Out-of-Time-Order-Correlation in perturbed quantum wells
arXiv:2304.14272 · doi:10.1140/epjd/s10053-025-01025-7
Abstract
Out-of-Time-Order-Correlator (OTOC) and Loschmidt Echo (LE) are commonly regarded as diagnostic tools for chaos, although they may yield misleading results because of various other factors. Previous studies have concluded that OTOC shows exponential growth in the neighbourhood of a local maximum. If this statement holds true, the exponential growth should break off once the local maximum is no longer present within the system. By applying a small symmetry-breaking perturbation, we notice that the behaviour of the OTOCs remains remarkably resilient even in the absence of a maximum. Besides this, we also notice that with the increase in perturbation strength, the broken symmetric region expands, causing a broader range of eigenstates to engage in the exponential growth of OTOCs. Therefore, the critical factor lies not in the presence of a local maximum, but in the dynamic nature of the density of states in the broken symmetry regions. Our examination, spanning diverse potential landscapes, reveals the universality of this phenomenon. We also use another chaos diagnostic tool, LE. Interestingly, it also shows the signature of chaos whenever there is an exponential growth of OTOC.
