In the context of Banach Lie groups (and Lie groups with suitable regularity properties), we generalize the Baker–Campbell–Dynkin–Hausdorff formula to the product integral (with additional nilpotency assumption in the non-Banach case). We combine this formula with the results obtained for the Lax equation to derive an explicit representation of the product integral in terms of the exponential map. An important ingredient in the non-Banach case is an integral transformation that we introduce.
