The approximation of the time evolution operator U, using Trotter formula, can't hold anymore taking a time step of $\Delta t = \pi$
The problems arises from a consideration written on the book "Quantum computation and quantum information" from Michael A. Nielsen and Isaac L. Chuang on page 259.
In this chapter it's ...
