Homework Statement


I am searching for a proof of convergence of matrix exponential series. Where I can find it?
Thanks!



Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution

 
Physics news on Phys.org
Can you show that the series converges absolutely? I.e. that

[tex]\sum_{k=0}^{+\infty}{\frac{\|A^k\|}{k!}}[/tex]

converges...
 
@Micromass : As a sidenote, can this expression be checked for convergence/divergence using D'Alembert's Ratio test?
 
Probably yes, but I prefer to compare it with the series expansion of [tex]e^{\|A\|}[/tex]...
 
I found the whole proof
