Polyrhythms are a combination of two different beat patterns in the same amount of time. For example, let's say in a piano piece you have one measure in 2/4. The left hand has quarter notes while the right hand has eighth-note triplets. This means that the left hand hits 4 notes in one measure while the right one hits three. This is a polyrhythm known as three against four.
In musical terms, it's when you play simple and compound rhythms at the same time.

Polyrhythms will loop back at the LCM of each of the individual rhythms. So if you have two polyrhythms: one with m beats per second (Bps)and the other with n bps, then they will repeat their pattern every p seconds where p is the LCM of m and n. If they are synchronised at any point in time, then their synchronicity will repeat every p seconds.
