    1.1 Examples of matrix functions

    There are many applications involving matrix functions. We often manipulate matrix functions without realizing it. For example, when it exists, the inverse A -1 of A corresponds to the function such that f (x) = 1/x. Solving the linear system Ax = b means implicitly applying f (A) = A -1 to the vector b.

    Another simple example is the solution of systems of linear differential equations involving the exponential function. We want to calculate y, solution of the equation
