We study the Floquet phase diagram of two-dimensional Dirac materials such as graphene and the one-dimensional (1D) spin-1/2 $XY$ model in a transverse field in the presence of periodic time-varying terms in their Hamiltonians in the low drive frequency ($omega$) regime where standard $1/omega$ perturbative expansions fail. For graphene, such periodic time dependent terms are generated via the application of external radiation of amplitude $A_0$ and time period $T = 2pi/omega$, while for the 1D $XY$ model, they result from a two-rate drive protocol with time-dependent magnetic field and nearest-neighbor couplings between the spins. Using the adiabatic-impulse method, we provide several semi-analytic criteria for the occurrence of changes in the topology of the phase bands of such systems. For irradiated graphene, we point out the role of the symmetries of $H(t)$ and $U$ behind such topology changes. Our analysis reveals that at low frequencies, phase band topology changes may also happen at $t= T/3, 2T/3$ (apart from $t=T$). We chart out the phase diagrams at $t=T/3, 2T/3,, {rm and }, T$ as a function of $A_0$ and $T$ using exact numerics, and compare them with the prediction of the adiabatic-impulse method. We show that several characteristics of these phase diagrams can be analytically understood from results obtained using the adiabatic-impulse method and point out the crucial contribution of the high-symmetry points in the graphene Brillouin zone to these diagrams. Finally we study the 1D $XY$ model with a two-rate driving protocol using the adiabatic-impulse method and exact numerics revealing a phase band crossing at $t=T/2$ and $k=pi/2$. We also study the anomalous end modes generated by such a drive. We suggest experiments to test our theory.

We consider the dynamics of an XY spin chain subjected to an external transverse field which is periodically quenched between two values. By deriving an exact expression of the Floquet Hamiltonian for this out-of-equilibrium protocol with arbitrary d
riving frequencies, we show how, after an unfolding of the Floquet spectrum, the parameter space of the system is characterized by alternations between local and non-local regions, corresponding respectively to the absence and presence of Floquet resonances. The boundary lines between regions are obtained analytically from avoided crossings in the Floquet quasi-energies and are observable as phase transitions in the synchronized state. The transient behaviour of dynamical averages of local observables similarly undergoes a transition, showing either a rapid convergence towards the synchronized state in the local regime, or a rather slow one exhibiting persistent oscillations in the non-local regime, where explicit decay coefficients are presented.
We study the phase diagram of a one-dimensional version of the Kitaev spin-1/2 model with an extra ``$Gamma$-term, using analytical, density matrix renormalization group and exact diagonalization methods. Two intriguing phases are found. In the gaple
ss phase, although the exact symmetry group of the system is discrete, the low energy theory is described by an emergent SU(2)$_1$ Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) model. On the other hand, the spin-spin correlation functions exhibit SU(2) breaking prefactors, even though the exponents and the logarithmic corrections are consistent with the SU(2)$_1$ predictions. A modified nonabelian bosonization formula is proposed to capture such exotic emergent ``partial SU(2) symmetry. In the ordered phase, there is numerical evidence for an $O_hrightarrow D_4$ spontaneous symmetry breaking.
The frustrated XY model on the honeycomb lattice has drawn lots of attentions because of the potential emergence of chiral spin liquid (CSL) with the increasing of frustrations or competing interactions. In this work, we study the extended spin-$frac
{1}{2}$ XY model with nearest-neighbor ($J_1$), and next-nearest-neighbor ($J_2$) interactions in the presence of a three-spins chiral ($J_{chi}$) term using density matrix renormalization group methods. We obtain a quantum phase diagram with both conventionally ordered and topologically ordered phases. In particular, the long-sought Kalmeyer-Laughlin CSL is shown to emerge under a small $J_{chi}$ perturbation due to the interplay of the magnetic frustration and chiral interactions. The CSL, which is a non-magnetic phase, is identified by the scalar chiral order, the finite spin gap on a torus, and the chiral entanglement spectrum described by chiral $SU(2)_{1}$ conformal field theory.
We study the topological phase transitions induced in spin-orbit coupled materials with buckling like silicene, germanene, stanene, etc, by circularly polarised light, beyond the high frequency regime, and unearth many new topological phases. These p
hases are characterised by the spin-resolved topological invariants, $C_0^uparrow$, $C_0^downarrow$, $C_pi^uparrow$ and $C_pi^downarrow$, which specify the spin-resolved edge states traversing the gaps at zero quasi-energy and the Floquet zone boundaries respectively. We show that for each phase boundary, and independently for each spin sector, the gap closure in the Brillouin zone occurs at a high symmetry point.
A central question on Kitaev materials is the effects of additional couplings on the Kitaev model which is proposed to be a candidate for realizing topological quantum computations. However, two spatial dimension typically suffers the difficulty of l
acking controllable approaches. In this work, using a combination of powerful analytical and numerical methods available in one dimension, we perform a comprehensive study on the phase diagram of a one-dimensional version of the spin-1/2 Kitaev-Heisenberg-Gamma model in its full parameter space. A strikingly rich phase diagram is found with nine distinct phases, including four Luttinger liquid phases, a ferromagnetic phase, a Neel ordered phase, an ordered phase of distorted-spiral spin alignments, and two ordered phase which both break a $D_3$ symmetry albeit in different ways, where $D_3$ is the dihedral group of order six. Our work paves the way for studying one-dimensional Kitaev materials and may provide hints to the physics in higher dimensional situations.
