Apr 25, 2012 at 21:10 comment added Bernard sorry, it is indeed (2). To avoid confusion, t is a scalar and x is a positive matrix. When dimension is 1, everything goes well, when dimension is higher I'm not sure what can be done.

sorry, I got confused when typing my ODE, corrected this.
Apr 25, 2012 at 20:59 comment added Aaron Hoffman (1) Do you mean df/dx = 1/(a-bx^2)? Or perhaps df/dx = a-bf^2? (2) Is the matrix problem an ODE, i.e. is x a scalar? If so, why write xbx?
Apr 25, 2012 at 20:56 comment added Federico Poloni Something is wrong with your scalar version of the ODE. As it is written, it suffices to integrate in $dx$ on both sides to get $f(x)=ax-\frac{b}3x^3+C$. Please correct the text.
Apr 25, 2012 at 20:48 comment added Steve Huntsman Casual guess: some judicious combination of time/path-ordering (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordered_exponential) and diagonalization might help.
