The exponential map from selfadjoint to unitary #

In this file, we establish various propreties related to the map λ a, exp ℂ A (I • a) between the subtypes self_adjoint A and unitary A.

TODO #

Show that any exponential unitary is path-connected in unitary A to 1 : unitary A.
Prove any unitary whose distance to 1 : unitary A is less than 1 can be expressed as an exponential unitary.
A unitary is in the path component of 1 if and only if it is a finite product of exponential unitaries.
