The Young–Deruyts development is a mathematical technique used to express a function of a matrix in terms of its eigenvalues and associated eigenvectors. It is particularly useful in the context of matrix exponentiation and other functions of matrices that can be difficult to compute directly. The development is named after the mathematicians William H. Young and Pierre Deruyts.
