We derive general bounds on the linear response energy absorption rates of periodically driven many-body systems of spins or fermions on a lattice. We show that for systems with local interactions, energy absorption rate decays exponentially as a function of driving frequency in any number of spatial dimensions. These results imply that topological many-body states in periodically driven systems, although generally metastable, can have very long lifetimes. We discuss applications to other problems, including decay of highly energetic excitations in cold atomic and solid-state systems.

    The paper proves, with one explicit assumption in the intermediate regime, that prethermal Floquet phases exist for power-law interacting systems with exponent alpha > d, and predicts a disorder-free one-dimensional p...

    cond-mat.str-el 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Under sine-square-deformed Floquet driving of a 1+1D CFT, the heating phase localizes energy and Bell-pair entanglement at two fixed-point peaks, and E scales as the exponential of the entropy.

  3. Locality and Heating in Periodically Driven, Power-law Interacting Systems

    quant-ph 2019-08 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Power-law interacting, periodically driven systems exhibit heating times exponential in drive frequency for alpha > D in linear response and alpha > 2D in general, with the gap attributed to the absence of tight Lieb-...

    quant-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For local Lindbladians with Ginibre-like spectra, eigenoperator size is locked to decay rate, giving state-independent early-time purity decay and size-limited operator growth.
