description

The existence of an exponential representation for the fundamental solutions of a linear differential system is approached from a novel point of view. A sufficient condition is obtained in terms of the norm of the coefficient operator defining the system. The condition turns out to coincide with a previously published one concerning convergence of the Magnus series expansion. Direct analysis of the general evolution equations in the SU(N) Lie group illustrates how the estimate for the domain of existence/convergence becomes larger. Eventually, an application is done for the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff series.
