Sumario:[EN] Matrix exponentials are widely used to efficiently tackle systems of linear differential equations. To be able to solve systems of fractional differential equations, the Caputo matrix exponential of the index a > 0 was introduced. It generalizes and adapts the conventional matrix exponential to systems of fractional differential equations with constant coefficients. This paper analyzes the most significant properties of the Caputo matrix exponential, in particular those related to its inverse. Several numerical test examples are discussed throughout this exposition in order to outline our approach. Moreover, we demonstrate that the inverse of a Caputo matrix exponential in general is not another Caputo matrix exponential.
