Performance evaluation of the discrete truncated Wigner approximation for quench dynamics of quantum spin systems with long-range interactions

The discrete truncated Wigner approximation (DTWA) is a powerful tool for analyzing dynamics of quantum spin systems. Since the DTWA includes the leading-order quantum corrections to a mean-field approximation, it is naturally expected that the DTWA becomes more accurate when the range of interactions of the system increases. However, quantitative corroboration of this expectation is still lacking mainly because it is generally difficult in a...
