An inelastic bound on chaos

Abstract We study a generalization of the chaos bound that applies to out-of-time-ordered correlators between four different operators. We prove this bound under the same assumptions that apply for the usual chaos bound and extend it to non-hermitian operators. In a holographic theory, these correla...
