Abstract: In this work, we give a rigorous explicit formula for the Lyapunov exponent for some binary infinite products of random 2imes2 real matrices. All these products are constructed using only two types of matrices, A and B, which are chosen according to a stochastic process. The matrix A is singular, namely its determinant is zero. This formula is derived by using a particular decomposition for the matrix B, which allows us to write the Lyapunov exponent as a sum of convergent series. Finally, we show with an example that the Lyapunov exponent is a discontinuous function of the given parameter.
