23. Here we assume that such a power series expansion can be carried out for individual Lyapunov exponents. This is not unreasonable, but it might be applicable only to low densities. In any case, it is clear from the previous paragraph that the presence of such nonanalytic terms can only give rise to differences between the finite-time Lyapunov exponents (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) (or the actual Lyapunov exponents (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) that are weaker than (Formula presented).
