  Dynamical decoupling is a powerful technique to suppress errors in quantum
systems originating from environmental couplings or from unwanted
inter-particle interactions. However, it can also be used to selectively
decouple specific couplings in a quantum system. We present a simple and
easy-to-use general method to construct such selective decoupling schemes on
qubit and qudit networks by means of (generalized) Pauli operations. As these
constructed schemes can suppress Hamiltonian interactions on general qudit
networks selectively, they are well suited for purposes of approximate quantum
simulation. Some examples are presented, demonstrating the use of our method
and the resulting decoupling schemes.
