TEST_MATRIX_EXPONENTIAL is a Python library which contains some simple tests for software that computes the matrix exponential function.
Formally, for a square matrix A and scalar t, the matrix exponential exp(A*t) can be defined as the sum:
exp(A*t) = sum ( 0 <= i < oo ) A^i t^i / i!
The simplest form of the matrix exponential problem asks for the value when t = 1, that is
exp(A) = sum ( 0 <= i < oo ) A^i / i!Even for this simple case, and for a matrix of small order, it can be quite difficult to compute the matrix exponential accurately.
