A Magnus- and Fer-type formula in dendriform algebras
Résumé
We provide a refined approach to the classical Magnus and Fer expansion, unveiling a new structure by using the language of dendriform and pre-Lie algebras. The recursive formula for the logarithm of the solutions of the equations X=1+ta a in A[[t]] is provided, where (A,<,>) is a dendriform algebra. Then, we present the solutions to these equations as an infinite product expansion of exponentials. Both formulae involve the pre-Lie product naturally associated with the dendriform structure. Several applications are presented.
