Discretization

Choosing the imaginary-time discretization Dtau and managing Trotter errors.

Parameters

Parameter Where Set Typical Range Description
Dtau TODO TODO Imaginary-time step size

Guidelines

TODO: Tradeoff between Trotter error and computational cost, how to extrapolate to Dtau → 0, typical values for different models.

Known Pitfalls

TODO: Signs that Dtau is too large, interaction with other parameters.
