In a previous paper (Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg 170, 223-237, 1999) we introduced a new method for computing the dominant Lyapunov exponent of a chaotic map by using spatial integration involving a matrix norm. We conjectured that this sequence of integrals decayed proportional to 1/n. We now prove this conjecture and derive a bound on the next term in the asymptotic expansion of the terms in the sequence. The H´enon map and a system of coupled Dung,oscillators are explored in detail in the light of these theoretical results.
