The paper proves, with one explicit assumption in the intermediate regime, that prethermal Floquet phases exist for power-law interacting systems with exponent alpha > d, and predicts a disorder-free one-dimensional prethermal discrete time crystal for 1 < alpha < 2.

abstract
Using a numerically exact method we study the stability of dynamical localization to the addition of interactions in a periodically driven isolated quantum system which conserves only the total number of particles. We find that while even infinitesimally small interactions destroy dynamical localization, for weak interactions density transport is significantly suppressed and is asymptotically diffusive, with a diffusion coefficient proportional to the interaction strength. For systems tuned away from the dynamical localization point, even slightly, transport is dramatically enhanced and within the largest accessible systems sizes a diffusive regime is only pronounced for sufficiently small detunings.

Long-Range Prethermal Phases of Nonequilibrium Matter
The paper proves, with one explicit assumption in the intermediate regime, that prethermal Floquet phases exist for power-law interacting systems with exponent alpha > d, and predicts a disorder-free one-dimensional prethermal discrete time crystal for 1 < alpha < 2.
