Hi,

it is a bit hard to improve the source code when no
input data given.

So only a few comments:

> NDMatrixPower[M_/;And[MatrixQ[M], Length[M]] == Length[M[[1]]], t_
> /; Or[NumericQ[t], Head[t] == Symbol]] :=
>             Module[{v, w, r, EigenTable, Multiplicidad, A, B, Sol, k},
(* You don't need to Clear[] the variables in a module because
   new unique symbols names are generated when Module is called  *)
>             Clear[v, w, r, EigenTable, Multiplicidad, Sol, k];
>             v = Eigenvalues[M];
(* Why Union[{v,v}] the Union [v] will work and is faster *)
>             w = Union[v, v];
(* Hmm what is the task of evaluating w[[1]] but don't use the result ..
*)
>             w[[1]];
(* Try 

{First[#], Length[#]} & /@ Split[Eigenvalues]

and forget the line below and the Union[]. You Don't need to Sort
the eigenvalues because Eigenvalues[] return already a sorted
list.
*)

>             EigenTable = Table[{w[[i]], Count[v, w[[i]]]}, {i, 1,
> Length[w]}];

(* I'm not sure about that, but

Flatten[Table[i - 1, {i, Length[#]}] & /@ Split[v]]

will do the same. *)

>             Multiplicidad = Join@@Table[i, {j, 1, Length[EigenTable]},
> {i, 1, EigenTable[[j, 2]]}] - 1;
>             A = Table[D[Power[r, j - 1], {r, Multiplicidad[[i]]}] /. r
> -> v[[i]], {i, 1, Length[M]}, {j, 1, Length[M]}];
>             B = Table[D[Power[r, k], {r, Multiplicidad[[i]]}] /. r ->
> v[[i]], {i, 1, Length[M]}, {j, 1, 1}];
>             Sol = Transpose[LinearSolve[A, B]][[1]];
>             Plus@@Table[MatrixPower[M, i - 1]*Sol[[i]], {i, 1,
> Length[v]}] /. k -> t];

For the rest I would like to see the original formulas.

Hope that helps
  Jens
