Matrices of nilpotent adjoint exponentials #

Module.Basis.toMatrixAlgEquiv_expAd expresses the matrix of the inner automorphism exp(ad(t • e)) as Matrix.expSeries in the matrix of ad e. Any truncation degree annihilating ad e suffices. This identifies adjoint exponentials with polynomial matrix families in the scalar parameter, without assumptions on Cartan subalgebras or roots.

The truncated exponential series of the matrix of ad e is the matrix of exp (ad (t • e)), once the truncation degree kills ad e.
