We propose a scenario to create topological superfluid in a periodically driven two-dimensional square optical lattice. We study the phase diagram of a spin-orbit coupled s-wave pairing superfluid in a periodically driven two-dimensional square optical lattice. We find that a phase transition from a trivial superfluid to a topological superfluid occurs when the potentials of the optical lattices are periodically changed. The topological phase is called Floquet topological superfluid and can host Majorana fermions.

Experimental realizations of topological quantum systems and detections of topological invariants in ultracold atomic systems have been a greatly attractive topic. In this work, we propose a scheme to realize topologically different phases in a bichr
omatic optical lattice subjected to a periodically driven tilt harmonic oscillation, which can be effectively described by a superlattice model with tunable long-range hopping processes. By tuning the ratio of nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) hopping amplitudes, the system undergoes a topological phase transition accompanied by the change of topological numbers of the lowest band from -1 to 2. Using a slowly time-periodic modulation, the system emerges distinct quantized topological pumped charges (TPCs) of atoms in the filled band for different topological phases. Our scheme is realizable in current cold atomic technique.
Floquet higher order topological insulators (FHOTIs) are a novel topological phase that can occur in periodically driven lattices. An appropriate experimental platform to realize FHOTIs has not yet been identified. We introduce a periodically-driven
bipartite (two-band) system that hosts FHOTI phases, and predict that this lattice can be realized in experimentally-realistic optical waveguide arrays, similar to those previously used to study anomalous Floquet insulators. The model exhibits interesting phase transitions from first-order to second-order topological matter by tuning a coupling strength parameter, without breaking lattice symmetry. In the FHOTI phase, the lattice hosts corner modes at eigenphase $0$ or $pi$, which are robust against disorder in the individual couplings.
We theoretically study the thermal relaxation of many-body systems under the action of oscillating external fields. When the magnitude or the orientation of a field is modulated around values where the pairwise heat-exchange conductances depend non-l
inearly on this field, we demonstrate that the time symmetry is broken during the evolution of temperatures over a modulation cycle. We predict that this asymmetry enables a pumping of heat which can be used to cool down faster the system. This effect is illustrated through different magneto-optical systems under the action of an oscillating magnetic field.
We demonstrate that a three dimensional time-periodically driven lattice system can exhibit a second-order chiral skin effect and describe its interplay with Weyl physics. This Floquet skin-effect manifests itself, when considering open rather than p
eriodic boundary conditions for the system. Then an extensive number of bulk modes is transformed into chiral modes that are bound to the hinges (being second-order boundaries) of our system, while other bulk modes form Fermi arc surface states connecting a pair of Weyl points. At a fine tuned point, eventually all boundary states become hinge modes and the Weyl points disappear. The accumulation of an extensive number of modes at the hinges of the system resembles the non-Hermitian skin effect, with one noticeable difference being the localization of the Floquet hinge modes at increasing distances from the hinges in our system. We intuitively explain the emergence of hinge modes in terms of repeated backreflections between two hinge-sharing faces and relate their chiral transport properties to chiral Goos-Hanchen-like shifts associated with these reflections. Moreover, we formulate a topological theory of the second-order Floquet skin effect based on the quasi-energy winding around the Floquet-Brillouin zone for the family of hinge states. The implementation of a model featuring both the second-order Floquet skin effect and the Weyl physics is straightforward with ultracold atoms in optical superlattices.
The concept of topological fermions, including Weyl and Dirac fermions, stems from the quantum Hall state induced by a magnetic field, but the definitions and classifications of topological fermions are formulated without using magnetic field. It is
unclear whether and how the topological information of topological fermions can be probed once their eigen spectrum is completely rebuilt by a strong magnetic field. In this work, we provide an answer via mapping Landau levels (bands) of topological fermions in $d$ dimensions to the spectrum of a $(d-1)$-dimensional lattice model. The resultant Landau lattice may correspond to a topological insulator, and its topological property can be determined by real-space topological invariants. Accordingly, each zero-energy Landau level (band) inherits the topological stability from the corresponding topological boundary state of the Landau lattice. The theory is demonstrated in detail by transforming 2D Dirac fermions under magnetic fields to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger models in class AIII, and 3D Weyl fermions to the Chern insulators in class A.
