The Analytic and Formal Normal Form for the Nilpotent Singularity

AbstractWe study orbital normal forms for analytic planar vector fields with nilpotent singularity. We show that the Takens normal form is analytic. In the case of generalized cusp we present the complete formal orbital normal form; it contains functional moduli. We interprete the coefficients of these moduli in terms of the hidden holonomy group
