Transport blocking and topological phases using ac magnetic fields
  We analyze electron dynamics and topological properties of open double quantum dots (DQDs) driven by circularly polarized ac-magnetic fields. In particular we focus on the system symmetries which can be tuned by the ac-magnetic field. Remarkably, we show that in the electron spin resonance (ESR) configuration, where the magnetic fields in each dot oscillate with a phase difference of $\pi$, charge localization occurs giving rise to transport blocking at arbitrary intensities of the ac field. The conditions for charge localization are obtained by means of Floquet theory and related with quasienergies degeneracy. We also demonstrate that a topological phase transition can be induced in the adiabatic regime for a phase difference of $\pi$, either by tuning the coupling between dots or by modifying the intensity of the driving magnetic field.
