We give a general overview of the high-frequency regime in periodically driven systems and
identify three distinct classes of driving protocols in which the infinite-frequency Floquet …

We give a systematic review of the adiabatic theorem and the leading non-adiabatic
corrections in periodically-driven (Floquet) systems. These corrections have a two-fold …

Generally, an optical vortex lattice (OVL) is generated via the superposition of two specific
vortex beams. Thus far, OVL has been successfully employed to trap atoms via the dark …

Structured light with more extended degrees of freedom (DoFs) and in higher dimensions is
increasingly gaining traction and leading to breakthroughs such as super-resolution …

Classical ratchet potentials, which alternate a driving potential with periodic random
dissipative motion, can account for the operation of biological motors. We demonstrate the …

The term quantum physics refers to the phenomena and characteristics of atomic and
subatomic systems which cannot be explained by classical physics. Quantum physics has …

In structured light tweezers, it is a challenging technical issue to realize the complete circular
motion of the trapped particles parallel to the optical axis. Herein, we propose and generate …

When parameters are varied periodically, charge can be pumped through a mesoscopic
conductor without applied bias. Here, we consider the inverse effect in which a transport …

Exact diagonalization (ED) techniques are a powerful method for studying many-body
problems. Here, we apply this method to systems of few bosons in an optical lattice, and use …

The problem of time-dependent particle transport in quantum conductors is nowadays a well
established topic. In contrast, the way in which energy and heat flow in mesoscopic systems …
