Differential systems with Fuchsian linear part: correction and linearization, normal forms and multiple orthogonal polynomials

Differential systems with a Fuchsian linear part are studied in regions including all the singularities in the complex plane of these equations. Such systems are not necessarily analytically equivalent to their linear part (they are not linearizable) and obstructions are found as a unique nonlinear correction after which the system becomes formally linearizable. More generally, normal forms are found. The corrections and the normal forms are found constructively. Expansions in multiple orthogonal polynomials and their generalization to matrix-valued polynomials are instrumental to these constructions.Comment: 24 page

The return map for a planar vector field with nilpotent linear part: a direct and explicit derivation

Using a direct approach the return map near a focus of a planar vector field with nilpotent linear part is found as a convergent power series which is a perturbation of the identity and whose terms can be calculated iteratively. The first nontrivial coefficient is the value of an Abelian integral, and the following ones are explicitly given as iterated integrals.Comment: 11 page

Analytic linearization of nonlinear perturbations of Fuchsian systems

Nonlinear perturbation of Fuchsian systems are studied in regions including two singularities. Such systems are not necessarily analytically equivalent to their linear part (they are not linearizable). Nevertheless, it is shown that in the case when the linear part has commuting monodromy, and the eigenvalues have positive real parts, there exists a unique correction function of the nonlinear part so that the corrected system becomes analytically linearizable
