Many-body chaos at weak coupling

The strength of chaos in large $N$ quantum systems can be quantified using $λ_L$, the rate of growth of certain out-of-time-order four point functions. We calculate $λ_L$ to leading order in a weakly coupled matrix $Φ^4$ theory by numerically diagonalizing a ladder kernel. The computation reduces to an essentially classical problem.
