We classify chiral symmetric periodically driven quantum systems on a one-dimensional lattice. The driving process is local, can be continuous or discrete in time, and we assume a gap condition for the corresponding Floquet operator. The…

In Floquet engineering, periodic driving is used to realize novel phases of matter which are inaccessible in thermal equilibrium. For this purpose, the Floquet theory provides us a recipe of obtaining a static effective Hamiltonian.…

Periodically driven quantum systems known as Floquet insulators can host topologically protected bound states known as "$\pi$ modes" that exhibit response at half the frequency of the drive. Such states can also appear in undriven lattice…
