Chiral Parafermions in Floquet $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Topological Order
Floquet topological order (FTO) extends topology beyond equilibrium, giving rise to phenomena, such as the dynamical transmutation of anyons. Here, we realize $\mathbb{Z}_N$ FTO in a generalized Kitaev honeycomb model with clock degrees of freedom using a three-step periodic drive. The driven system admits an emergent...
