| matexp {PSM} | R Documentation |
Matrix exponential af a square matrix computed by the pade approximation.
matexp(a, dt=1,order = 8)
a |
A square numeric matrix |
dt |
Integration Time step |
order |
Pade approximation order |
This implementation is based on Niels Rode Kristensens work. This package is also highly inspired by David Firth's R package mexp.
The matrix exponential is returned. The function issues an error if problems occured in the fortran engine.
For indepth material on matrix exponentials - see Moler and van Loan (2003).

This implementation is based on Niels Rode Kristensens work. This package is also highly inspired by David Firth's R package mexp.
The examples below are all from David Firth's mexp package but the accuracy example has been removed as this package does not calculate the accuracy.

## A naive alternative to mexp, using spectral decomposition:
mexp2 <- function(matrix){
z <- eigen(matrix,sym=FALSE)
Re(z$vectors %*% diag(exp(z$values)) %*%
solve(z$vectors))
}
try(
mexp2(test1)
) ## now gives an error from solve !
