Abstract
Out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) are an effective tool in characterizing black hole chaos, many-body thermalization and quantum dynamics instability. Previous research findings have shown that the OTOCs' exponential growth (EG) marks the limit for quantum systems. However, we report in this letter a periodically-modulated nonlinear Schr\"odinger system, in which we interestingly find a novel way of information scrambling: super-EG. We show that the quantum OTOCs' growth, which stems from the quantum chaotic dynamics, will increase in a super-exponential way. We also find that in the classical limit, the hyper-chaos revealed by a linearly-increasing Lyapunov exponent actually triggers the super-EG of classical OTOCs. The results in this paper break the restraints of EG as the limit for quantum systems, which give us new insight into the nature of information scrambling in various fields of physics from black hole to many-body system.
