Please refer to the below example code and , use displayHTML(ani.to_jshtml()) to execute matplotlib animations in a databricks notebook

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.animation
import numpy as np
t = np.linspace(0,2*np.pi)
x = np.sin(t)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
l, = ax.plot([0,2*np.pi],[-1,1])
animate = lambda i: l.set_data(t[:i], x[:i])
ani = matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation(fig, animate, frames=len(t))
plt.show()
displayHTML(ani.to_jshtml())
