This is probably as good a way as any way for this kind of problem.
First define a binary operator:

"%^%" <- function(x, n)
       with(eigen(x), vectors %*% (values^n * t(vectors)))

This example only works for _diagonalizable_ matrices. It
crashes, for example, in cases like:

m <-  rbind(c(1,1,0), c(0,1,1), c(0,0,1))
m %^% 2
m %*% m

Then the %^% operator defined in package expm [1] will work for any kind of (square) matrix. The actual work is done in C, so it is pretty fast.
