Guess the particular solution to an exponential function`?
Solve this differential equation $y''+2y'+y = e^{-t}$.
I got the homogenous solution to be
$y_h= (Bt + C)e^{-t}$
But I don't know what my guess to the particular function should be?
$Ae^{-t}$ ...

Proving Exponential Convergence
Consider the function $\dot{x} = f(x,t)$. I want to show that if there exists a function $V(x,t)$ and some positive constants $h,\delta,k_1,k_2,$ and $k_3$ such that for all $x \in B(0,h)$ and for all ...

So say you have a matrix dependent on a variable t:
$A(t)$
How do you compute $e^{A(t)}$ ?
It seems Sylvester's formula, my standard method of computing matrix exponentials can't be applied here ...
