Abstract

Periodic driving of quantum systems introduces new dimensions for controlling quantum states. In my talk I will show how a time-periodic drive could be considered as adding a dimension, and how simple driven systems could acquire topological features of higher-dimensional systems. Also, I will discuss how using several drives in parallel could produce new types of topological states supporting multiple Majorana  modes.
