• Abstract: We consider a periodically driven system where the high-frequency driving protocol consists of a sequence of potentials switched on and off at different instants within a period. We explore the possibility of introducing an adiabatic modulation of the driving protocol by considering a slow evolution of the instants when the sequence of potentials is switched on/off. We examine how this influences the long-term dynamics of periodically driven quantum systems. By assuming that the slow and fast timescales in the problem can be decoupled, we derive the stroboscopic (effective) Hamiltonian for a four-step driving sequence up to the first order in perturbation theory. We then apply this approach to a rigid rotor, where the adiabatic modulation of the driving protocol is chosen to produce an evolving emergent magnetic field that interacts with the rotor's spin. We study the emergence of $\textit{diabolical points}$ and $\textit{diabolical loci}$ in the parameter space of the effective Hamiltonian. Further, we study the topological properties of the maps of the adiabatic paths in the parameter space to the eigenspace of the effective Hamiltonian. In effect, we obtain a technique to tune the topological properties of the eigenstates by selecting various adiabatic evolution of the driving protocol characterized by different paths in the parameter space. This technique can be applied to any periodic driving protocol to achieve desirable topological effects.

  We report on an emergent mechanism for pumping in a quantum gas coupled to an optical resonator. Due to dissipation, the cavity field evolves between its two quadratures, each corresponding to a different centrosymmetric crystal configuration. This self-oscillation results in a time-periodic potential analogous to that describing the transport of electrons in topological tight-binding models.

We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.
