I provided the sqrtm link so as to make it some informative for the
readers/maintainers.
Infact the improved sqrtm will be based on Higham's latest work on sqrtm
which
dates back to 1999
(www.maths.manchester.ac.uk/~higham/narep/narep336.ps.gz
<http://www.maths.manchester.ac.uk/%7Ehigham/narep/narep336.ps.gz>)
and Matlab still uses work previous than the latest algorithm proposed
in 1999.

Higham's work on sqrtm in 1999 will be the basis for the improved sqrtm
and not on Matlab's
work.

Bests,

you can not use the code on that article as also the new version
reports the "Copyright (c) 1984-98 by The MathWorks, Inc."
