In this talk I will describe theory work illustrating striking effects of periodic driving for three different regimes: (i) high frequency ω ≫ U,t, (ii) resonant ω = nU and (iii) in-gap U ≫ ω ≫ t. Floquet theory when U ≫ t predicts renormalisation of t for (i), substantial modifications of both t and U for (ii) and a suppression of t with super-exchange J essentially unchanged for (iii). To demonstrate this physics I will outline non-equilibrium DMFT results showing how the mechanism governing the magnetic melting of an initial classical Neel state can be controlled and switched in the half-filled Hubbard model in infinite dimensions. I will also describe how attaining dominant super-exchange interactions in regime (iii) leads to the emergence of strong singlet-pairing correlations in the driven state. This is demonstrated in the one-dimensional Hubbard model below half-filling in the thermodynamic limit using time-dependent DMRG calculations. By spanning different fillings, dimensions and driving regimes these results show how periodic driving leads to compelling new pathways for controlling magnetism and potentially engineering light-induced superconductivity.
