Time-dependent eigenstates of Hamiltonians offer a large degree tunability, which can be leveraged to operate single- and two-qubit gates so that they stay dynamically protected from noise. However, the usual analytical techniques for describing these are limited systems subject drives different frequencies. Thus authors generalize Floquet approach understanding such systems, provide protocols ...
