Hello,

The matrix exponential is defined as

expm(A)=I+A+1/2*A^2+...+1/k!*A^k+...

where the "*" denotes the matrix product.

You can obtain what you wanted with

exp(A)

i.e. element-wise exponential of A

Hi,

I am trying to use expm() and do not get what I am expecting.

I enter A = [1,0.5,0.7;0.3,0.7,1;1,0,1]
and B = expm(A)
and get as result

B =

    4.1672519 1.3854159    2.8881517

    2.1672628 2.4007931    3.0513947

3.17163590.66800663.96685.

I expected the matrix B elements to be exponents of corresponding elements of matrix A. For example
B(1,1) = B(2,3) = B(3,1) = B(3,3) = 2.7182818

Could you please explain to me what is going on?

Thanks

Jean
