Abstract
We show that Putzer's method to calculate the matrix exponential in [28] can be generalized to compute an arbitrary matrix function defined by a convergent power series. The main technical tool for adapting Putzer's formulation to the general setting is the omega matrix calculus; that is, an extension of MacMahon's partition analysis to the realm of matrix calculus and the method in [6]. Several results in the literature are shown to be special cases of our general formalism, including the computation of the fractional matrix exponentials introduced by Rodrigo [30].Our formulation is a much more general, direct, and conceptually simple method forcomputing analytic matrix functions. In our approach the recursive system of equations the base for Putzer's method is explicitly solved, and all we need todetermine is the analytic matrix functions.
