Apologies, mis-fire.

Anyway, So I can solve the system easily using matlab, etc.  And so my
question is most clearly:

How do I compute the exponential of a matrix easily in deal.ii, with the
least amount of fuss (I can't find a function in the documentation that does
this)?

Or if that's too vague, ...

How do I go about using the expm subroutine from LAPACK in my deal.ii code?

Many thanks,
Craig
