May 25, 2018 at 13:36 comment added user539887 @lcv You're right, that's the same. I removed my comment.
May 25, 2018 at 8:55 comment added lcv @user539887 the Peano-Baker series is precisely the OP’s series. Or did you have something else in mind?
May 25, 2018 at 3:38 comment added lcv Is $f(t)$ anti-hermitian? That would help
May 24, 2018 at 20:41 comment added user539887 No, I don't know exactly: just thinking aloud.
May 24, 2018 at 20:32 comment added Ludwig So, do you mean that, from the fact $\|e^{tS}\|=1$, a bound on (the norm of) the Magnus expansion can be found? (I don't see how...)
May 24, 2018 at 20:22 comment added user539887 Yes, for any $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there holds $\langle e^{tS}x, e^{tS}x \rangle' = \langle Se^{tS}x, e^{tS}x \rangle + \langle e^{tS}x, Se^{tS}x \rangle = \langle e^{tS}x, (S - S) e^{tS}x \rangle = 0$, that is, $\lVert e^{tS} \rVert = 1$ for all $t \in \mathbb{R}$.
May 24, 2018 at 16:57 comment added Ludwig Thanks for your input! Suppose that $[A_1,A_2]=S$, where $S$ is skew-symmetric (here square brackets denote commutator). Do you think this assumption could be helpful?
