Abstract
In this supplementary chapter I discuss the brute force extraction of a Lie exponent by using the Taylor series of the logarithm. This is not totally trivial because I lack a matrix representation. It must be pointed out that in general matrices can have complex logarithms just like numbers, however I am interested here in real maps having real Lie operators as logarithm. It could include spin.
