We study synchronization between periodically driven, interacting classical spins undergoing a Hamiltonian dynamics. In the thermodynamic limit there is a transition between a regime where all the spins oscillate synchronously for an infinite time with a period twice the driving period (synchronized regime) and a regime where the oscillations die after a finite transient (chaotic regime). We emphasize the peculiarity of our result, having been synchronization observed so far only in driven-dissipative systems. We discuss how our findings can be interpreted as a period-doubling time crystal and we show that synchronization can appear both for an overall regular and overall chaotic dynamics.
我们研究了在哈密顿动力学下,周期性驱动且相互作用的经典自旋之间的同步。在热力学极限下,存在一个转变,即所有自旋在一个周期为驱动周期两倍的无限长时间内同步振荡(同步状态),以及一个在有限的瞬态后振荡消失的状态(混沌状态)。我们强调了我们的结果的特殊性,迄今为止,只有在驱动耗散系统中才观察到同步。我们讨论了如何将我们的发现解释为倍周期时间晶体,并且我们表明,同步可以出现在整体规则和整体混沌动力学中。
