appropriate when analyzing the spatial delocalization of
the system. To separate regular from chaotic behavior,
a more appropriate basis consists of the eigenstates of
the integrable limit of the model, which is known as the
mean-field basis.27 In our case the integrable limit corresponds to Eqs. (1) with Jxy ̸= 0, ϵd ̸= 0, and Jz = 0.
