An exact representation of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula as a power series in just one of the two variables is constructed. Closed form coefficients of this series are found in terms of hyperbolic functions, which contain all of the…
We address the problem of constructing the non-associative version of the Dynkin form of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula; that is, expressing $\log (\exp (x)\exp(y))$, where $x$ and $y$ are non-associative variables, in terms of the…
The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula was recently resummed exactly in one variable, and left as a power series in the other (Moodie and Long 2021 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 54 015208). The coefficients of the power series were provided as a…
The well-known Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff theorem in Lie theory says that the logarithm of a noncommutative product e X e Y can be expressed in terms of iterated commutators of X and Y. This paper provides a gentle introduction t{\'o}…
We explicitly describe an expansion of $e^{A+B}$ as an infinite sum of the products of $B$ multiplied by the exponential function of $A$. This is the explicit description of the Zassenhaus formula. We also express the…
A simple expression is derived for the terms in the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff series. One formulation of the result involves a finite number of operations with matrices of rational numbers. Generalizations are discussed.
The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula is a general result for the quantity $Z(X,Y)=\ln( e^X e^Y )$, where $X$ and $Y$ are not necessarily commuting. For completely general commutation relations between $X$ and $Y$, (the free Lie algebra),…
In a previous article, [arXiv:1501.02506, JPhysA {\bf48} (2015) 225207], we demonstrated that whenever $[X,Y] = u X + vY + cI$ the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula reduces to the tractable closed-form expression \[ Z(X,Y)=\ln( e^X e^Y ) =…
A simple algorithm, which exploits the associativity of the BCH formula, and that can be generalized by iteration, extends the remarkable simplification of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff (BCH) formula, recently derived by Van-Brunt and…
The classical Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula gives a recursive way to compute the Hausdorff series H=ln(e^X e^Y) for non-commuting X,Y. Formally H lives in the graded completion of the free Lie algebra L generated by X,Y. We present a…
This paper is a study of power series, where the coefficients are binomial expressions (iterated finite differences). Our results can be used for series summation, for series transformation, or for asymptotic expansions involving Stirling…
We determine the p-exponent in many of the coefficients in the power series (log(1+x)/x)^t, where t is any integer. In our proof, we introduce a variant of multinomial coefficients. We also characterize the power series x/log(1+x) by…
It is pointed out that Reinsch's matrix operation formulation of calculating the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff series [math-ph/9905012] is equivalent to the straightforward series expansion. The amount of calculation does not decrease by his…
Multiplication of two elements of the special unitary group SU(N) determines uniquely a third group element. A BAker-Campbell-Hausdorff relation is derived which expresses the group parameters of the product (written as an exponential) in…
We transformed the generalized exponential power series to another functional form suitable for further analysis. By applying the Cauchy-Euler differential operator in the form of an exponential operator, the series became a sum of…
We show that there are {\it 13 types} of commutator algebras leading to the new closed forms of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff (BCH) formula $$\exp(X)\exp(Y)\exp(Z)=\exp({AX+BZ+CY+DI}) \ , $$ derived in arXiv:1502.06589, JHEP {\bf 1505}…
This short paper presents an efficient implementation of Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula for calculating the logarithm of product of two possibly non-commutative Lie group elements using only Lie algebra terms.
This paper derives a way to express differentiable complex-valued functions as the sum of powers of $(1-e^{\lambda x})$, where $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$, with an explicit formula for the remainder. This formulation is then used to associate an…
Based on the operator representation on the module over Banach algebra $B(X)$, the Campbell-Baker-Hausdorff formula is generalized to the unbounded situations. In conclusion, by means of the logarithmic representation of generally-unbounded…
The product of two unitaries can normally be expressed as a single exponential through the famous Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula. We present here a counterexample in quantum optics, by showing that an expression in terms of a single…
