Abstract
We study the isotropic XY quantum spin chain with a time-periodic transverse magnetic field acting on a single site. The asymptotic dynamics is described by a highly resonant Floquet–Schrödinger equation, for which we show the existence of a periodic solution if the forcing frequency is away from a discrete set of resonances. This in turn implies the state of the quantum spin chain to be asymptotically a periodic function synchronised with the forcing, also at arbitrarily low non-resonant frequencies. The behaviour at the resonances remains a challenging open problem.
