Zusammenfassung:We examine a time-dependent, surface Hamiltonian for the 3D compound samarium hexaboride based on the slave boson protocol linked version of the periodic Anderson model reported earlier. The problem of large on-site electron-electron repulsion was reformulated in terms of a holonomic constraint involving a term representing the spatially-independent Slave boson-condensate. In this communication, we show the possible access to the quantum anomalous Hall state due to the normal incidence of circularly polarized light on the surface of the compound in the high frequency limit within the framework of the Floquet theory. The value of the term is mildly affected by the intensity of incident radiation. The chern number is found to be unity for the right-handed as well as the left-handed circularly polarized light.
