The research aims to investigate operator scrambling in quantum circuits using super-Clifford gates and its implications for classical simulation.
Constructed circuits from super-Clifford gates.
Numerically analyzed operator entanglement saturation over time.
Investigated out-of-time ordered correlation functions (OTOCs) for classically simulable circuits.
Identified fast scramblers through operator entanglement saturation at time t*∼ln(N).
Demonstrated that OTOCs can be classically simulated in super-Clifford circuits.
Studied explicit examples of these behaviors in circuits with thousands of qubits.

Blake et al. (2025) studied this question.
