The exponential of a matrix is defined as the infinite Taylor
series expm(A) = I + A + A^2/2! + A^3/3! + ...
(although this is
definitely not the way to compute it). The method for the
dgeMatrix
class uses Ward's diagonal Pade' approximation with
three step preconditioning.

The expm package contains newer (partly faster and more
accurate) algorithms for expm()
and includes
logm
and sqrtm
.
This is a translation of the implementation of the corresponding Octave function contributed to the Octave project by A. Scottedward Hodel A.S.Hodel@Eng.Auburn.EDU. A bug in there has been fixed by Martin Maechler.
