Logarithmic norm

In mathematics, the logarithmic norm is a real-valued functional on operators, and is derived from either an inner product, a vector norm, or its induced operator norm. The logarithmic norm was independently introduced by Germund Dahlquist and Sergei Lozinskiĭ in 1958, for square matrices. It has since been extended to nonlinear operators and unbounded operators as well. The logarithmic norm has a wide range of applications, in particular in matrix theory, differential equations and numerical analysis. In the finite dimensional setting it is also referred to as the matrix measure or the Lozinskiĭ measure.

Let ${\displaystyle A}$ be a square matrix and ${\displaystyle \|\cdot \|}$ be an induced matrix norm. The associated logarithmic norm ${\displaystyle \mu }$ of ${\displaystyle A}$ is defined
