Spatial profile of the Majorana fermion wave function in a one-dimensional $p$-wave superconductors ($\cal{PWS}$) with quasi periodic disorder is shown to exhibit spatial oscillations. These oscillations damp out in the interior of the…

Response of pure Ising systems to time-dependent external magnetic fields, like pulsed and oscillating fields, are discussed and compared here. Because of the two time scales involved, namely the thermodynamic relaxation time of the system…

We study light propagation in an array of periodically curved waveguides consisting of pairs of waveguides with out-of-phase oscillations of waveguide centers. We compute the corresponding Floquet propagation constants and find…

We show a dissipative phase transition in a driven nonlinear quantum oscillator in which a discrete time-translation symmetry is spontaneously broken in two different ways. The corresponding regimes display either discrete or incommensurate…

Dynamic phase transition properties of ferromagnetic thin film system under the influence both bias and time dependent magnetic fields have been elucidated by means of kinetic Monte Carlo simulation with local spin update Metropolis…

We investigate the effect of periodic and disordered distributions of pairing centers in a one-dimensional itinerant system to obtain the microscopic conditions required to achieve an end Majorana mode and the topological phase diagram.…

For the driven-dissipative system of two coupled bosonic modes in a nonlinear cavity resonator, we demonstrate a sequence of phase transitions from a trivial steady state to two distinct dissipative time crystalline phases. These effects…

The entanglement properties of the time periodic Kitaev chain with nearest neighbor and next nearest neighbor hopping, is studied. The cases of the exact eigenstate of the time periodic Hamiltonian, referred to as the Floquet ground state…

We investigate analytically and numerically the dynamics of domain walls in a spin chain with ferromagnetic Ising interaction and subject to an external magnetic field perpendicular to the easy magnetization axis (transverse field Ising…

Periodically driven (Floquet) phases are attractive due to their ability to host unique physical phenomena with no static counterparts. We propose a general approach in nontrivially devising a square-root version of existing Floquet phases,…

We establish a link between metastability and a discrete time-crystalline phase in a periodically driven open quantum system. The mechanism we highlight requires neither the system to display any microscopic symmetry nor the presence of…

Quantum wires subject to the combined action of spin-orbit and Zeeman coupling in the presence of \emph{s}-wave pairing potentials (superconducting proximity effect in semiconductors or superfluidity in cold atoms) are one of the most…

Floquet topological insulators are topological phases of matter generated by the application of time-periodic perturbations on otherwise conventional insulators. We demonstrate that spatial variations in the time-periodic potential lead to…

We experimentally study the response of star-shaped clusters of initially unentangled $N=4$, 10 and 37 nuclear spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ moments to an inexact $\pi$-pulse sequence, and show that an Ising coupling between the centre and the…

It has been argued that the existence of time crystals requires a spontaneous breakdown of the continuous time translation symmetry so to account for the unexpected non-stationary behavior of quantum observables in the ground state. Our…

Time crystals are nonequilibrium phases of matter characterized by the emergence of temporal ordering, in which an interacting many-body system develops robust structure in its time evolution that is not trivially dictated by the external…

This works extends the recent study on the dielectric permittivity of crystals within the Hartree model [E. Cances and M. Lewin, Arch. Rational Mech. Anal., 197 (2010) 139--177] to the time-dependent setting. In particular, we prove the…

We examine excitation suppression in the transverse-field Ising model (TFIM), where finite-time drive across a quantum critical point is assisted by the presence of a time-dependent coupling parameter. While conventional counterdiabatic…

We present a unified study of the effect of periodic, quasiperiodic and disordered potentials on topological phases that are characterized by Majorana end modes in 1D p-wave superconducting systems. We define a topological invariant derived…

Time crystals correspond to a phase of matter where time-translational symmetry (TTS) is broken. Up to date, they are well studied in open quantum systems, where external drive allows to break discrete TTS, ultimately leading to Floquet…
