expm (version 0.999-4)

expAtv: Compute Matrix Exponential exp(A t) * v directly

Description

Compute \(\exp(A t) * v\) directly, without evaluating \(\exp(A)\).

Usage

expAtv(A, v, t = 1,
       method = "Sidje98",
       rescaleBelow = 1e-6,
       tol = 1e-07, btol = 1e-07, m.max = 30, mxrej = 10,
       verbose = getOption("verbose"))

Arguments

A

n x n matrix

v

n - vector

t

number (scalar);

method

a string indicating the method to be used; there's only one currently; we would like to add newer ones.

rescaleBelow

if norm(A,"I") is smaller than rescaleBelow, rescale A to norm 1 and t such that \(A t\) remains unchanged. This step is in addition to Sidje's original algorithm and easily seen to be necessary even in simple cases (e.g., \(n = 3\)).

tol, btol

tolerances; these are tuning constants of the "Sidje1998" method which the user should typically not change.

m.max, mxrej

integer constants you should only change if you know what you're doing

verbose

flag indicating if the algorithm should be verbose..

Value

a list with components

eAtv

.....fixme...
