  • Abstract
    The Wei-Norman formula locally relates the Magnus solution of a system of linear time-varying ODE with the solution expressed in terms of products of exponentials by means of a set of nonlinear differential equations in the parameters of the two types of solutions. A closed form expression of such formula is proposed, based only on the structure constants of the Lie algebra generated by the ODEs.
