Floquet engineering magnetism and superconductivity in the square-lattice Hubbard model

We study the interplay of magnetic order and superconductivity in the square-lattice Hubbard model under periodic driving with circularly polarized light. Formulating diagrammatic techniques based on the random-phase approximation in terms of Floquet Green's functions, allows us to analyze fluctuation-driven unconventional pairing for weak to moderate interactions. The interplay of repulsive interactions and photoassisted hopping of electrons gives rise to a rich magnetic phase diagram featuring an antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagnetic transition prior to a Floquet Lifshitz transition. Close to the antiferromagnetic transition, topological d + i d -wave superconductivity prevails in the phase diagram for a wide range of drive parameters. At intermediate- to high-frequency driving near the Floquet Lifshitz transition, superconducting orders are tuned from spin-singlet d -wave to spin-triplet p -wave character, providing an effective protocol for Floquet engineering topological superconductivity.
