The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff Formula in the Free Metabelian Lie Algebra
Journal of Lie Theory, Volume 17 (2007) no. 3, pp. 525-538
The classical Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula gives a recursive way to compute the Hausdorff series $H=\ln(e^Xe^Y)$ for non-commuting $X,Y$. Formally $H$ lives in the graded completion of the free Lie algebra $L$ generated by $X,Y$. We present a closed explicit formula for $H=\ln(e^Xe^Y)$ in a linear basis of the graded completion of the free metabelian Lie algebra $L/[[L,L],[L,L]]$.
