Extract
Let a meromorphic differential equation
be given, where r is an integer, and the series converges for |z| sufficiently large. Then it is well known that (0.1) is formally satisfied by an expression
where F( z) is a formal power series in z–1 times an integer power of z, and F( z) has an inverse of the same kind, L is a constant matrix, and
is a diagonal matrix of polynomials qj( z) in a root of z, 1≦ j≦ n. If, for example, all the polynomials in Q( z) are equal, then F( z) can be seen to be a convergent series (see Section 1), whereas if not, then generally the coefficients in F( z) grow so rapidly that F( z) diverges for every (finite) z.
