Floquet topological superconductivity in two-dimensional magnet-superconductor hybrid systems.*

Magnet-superconductor hybrid (MSH) systems have proven valuable candidate systems for the creation

of topological superconductivity and the ensuing Majorana zero modes. However, the manipulation of

this topological superconductivity, and in particular, the ability to externally tune MSH system

between topological and trivial phases, has remained a significant obstacle on the road to realizing

topological quantum computing. In this talk, I will demonstrate how the topological phases of MSH

systems can be manipulated by using periodically driven changes in their magnetic structure. In

particular, I will discuss how the interplay between the time and spatial dependence of the magnetic

structure can be employed to quantum engineer topological superconducting phases.
