D.5.10.3 matrixLog

Procedure from library orbitparam.lib (see orbitparam_lib).

Usage:
matrixLog(A); A matrix.

Assume:
A-E is a nilpotent n x n matrix.
If the characteristic p of the ground field is positive, then n has to be smaller than p.

Return:
matrix, log(A)

Theory:
We compute the power series, which terminates since A-E is nilpotent.

Example:
 
LIB "orbitparam.lib";
ring R = 0,(s,t),dp;
matrix A[3][3] = 1,s,st/2, 0,1,t, 0,0,1;
matrixLog(A);
==> _[1,1]=0
==> _[1,2]=s
==> _[1,3]=0
==> _[2,1]=0
==> _[2,2]=0
==> _[2,3]=t
==> _[3,1]=0
==> _[3,2]=0
==> _[3,3]=0
