• Abstract summary: The impulsive driving is provided by stroboscopic measurements on an ancillary degree of freedom. The dynamics of this system is determined in closed analytical form. We observe regimes with crystalline and quasicrystalline structures in phase space, resonances, and evidences of chaotic behavior.

• Abstract: We present a kicked harmonic oscillator where the impulsive driving is provided by stroboscopic measurements on an ancillary degree of freedom and not by the canonical quantization of a time-dependent Hamiltonian. The ancila is dynamically entangled with the oscillator position, while the background Hamiltonian remains static. The dynamics of this system is determined in closed analytical form, allowing for the evaluation of a properly defined Loschmidt echo, ensemble averages, and phase-space portraits. As in the case of standard Floquet systems we observe regimes with crystalline and quasicrystalline structures in phase space, resonances, and evidences of chaotic behavior, however, not originating from any classically chaotic system.

  We pinpoint the conditions necessary for discrete time crystal formation in fully connected spin-cavity systems. We elucidate the role of nonlinearity and dissipation by mapping the periodically driven open Dicke model onto effective linear and nonlinear oscillator models. We analyze the effect of global symmetry breaking using the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model with tunable anisotropy.

  Floquet topological phases emerge when systems are periodically driven out-of-equilibrium. We show that resonances in Floquet phases can be accurately captured in analytical terms. We also find a bulk-to-boundary correspondence between the number of edge states in finite systems.

• Prethermalization in periodically-driven nonreciprocal many-body spin systems [0.0]
  We analyze a new class of time-periodic nonreciprocal dynamics in interacting chaotic classical spin systems. We find that the magnetization dynamics features a long-lived metastable plateau, whose duration is controlled by the fourth power of the drive frequency. We extend the notion of prethermal dynamics, observed in the high-frequency limit of periodically-driven systems, to nonreciprocal systems.

  Phase transitions correspond to the singular behavior of physical systems in response to continuous control parameters like temperature or external fields. Near continuous phase transitions, associated with the divergence of a correlation length, universal power-law scaling behavior with critical exponents independent of microscopic system details is found.

  We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.

• Quantized Floquet topology with temporal noise [0.0]
  We study the Floquet insulator, which exhibits topologically quantized chiral edge states similar to a Chern insulator. We find that the quantized response, given by partially filling the fermionic system and measuring charge pumped per cycle, remains quantized up to finite noise amplitude. This approach suggests an interpretation of the state of the system as a non-Hermitian Floquet topological phase.
