We show that the correlation functions of a class of periodically driven integrable closed quantum systems approach their steady-state value as n −(α+1)/β , where n is the number of drive cycles and α and β denote positive integers. We find that, generically, β = 2 within a dynamical phase characterized by a fixed α; however, its value can change to β = 3 or β = 4 either at critical drive frequencies separating two dynamical phases or at special points within a phase. We show that such decays are realized in both driven Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) and one-dimensional (1D) transverse field Ising models, discuss the role of symmetries of the Floquet spectrum in determining β, and chart out the values of α and β realized in these models. We analyze the SSH model for a continuous drive protocol using a Floquet perturbation theory which provides analytical insight into the behavior of the correlation functions in terms of its Floquet Hamiltonian. This is supplemented by an exact numerical study of a similar behavior for the 1D Ising model driven by a square pulse protocol. For both models, we find a crossover timescale n c which diverges at the transition. We also unravel a long-time oscillatory behavior of the correlators when the critical drive frequency, ω c , is approached from below (ω < ω c ). We tie such behavior to the presence of multiple stationary points in the Floquet spectrum of these models and provide an analytic expression for the time period of these oscillations.
