Higher-order and fractional discrete time crystals in clean long-range interacting systems
Discrete time crystals are typically characterized by a period doubled response with respect to an external drive. Here, the authors predict the emergence of rich dynamical phases with higher-order and fractional periods in clean spin-1/2 chains with long-range interactions.
