The Kreiss Matrix Theorem asserts the uniform equivalence over allN ×N matrices of power boundedness and a certain resolvent estimate. We show that the ratio of the constants in these two conditions grows linearly withN, and we obtain the optimal proportionality factor up to a factor of 2. Analogous results are also given for the related problem involving matrix exponentialseAt. The proofs make use of a lemma that may be of independent interest, which bounds the arc length of the image of a circle in the complex plane under a rational function.
