We identify several phases of thermalization that describe regimes of behavior in isolated, periodically driven (Floquet), mesoscopic quantum chaotic systems. We also identify a new Floquet thermal ensemble -- the ladder ensemble -- that is…
We show that locally-interacting, periodically-driven (Floquet) Hamiltonian dynamics coupled to a Langevin bath support finite-temperature discrete time crystals (DTC) with an infinite auto-correlation time. By contrast to both prethermal…
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…
We address the nature of phase transitions in periodically driven systems coupled to a bath. The latter enables a synchronized non-equilibrium Floquet steady state at finite entropy, which we analyse for rapid drives within a…

Floquet systems are governed by periodic, time-dependent, Hamiltonians. Prima facie they should absorb energy from the external drives involved in modulating their couplings and heat up to infinite temperature. However this unhappy state of…
In (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory, integrability is typically defined as the existence of an infinite number of local charges of different Lorentz spin, which commute with the Hamiltonian. A well known consequence of integrability…
