Resumen de Stokes Phenomenon and Confluence in Non-autonomous Hamiltonian Systems

Martin Klimeš

• This article studies a confluence of a pair of regular singular points to an irregular one in a generic family of time-dependent Hamiltonian systems in dimension 2. This is a general setting for the understanding of the degeneration of the sixth Painlevé equation to the fifth one. The main result is a theorem of sectoral normalization of the family to an integrable formal normal form, through which is explained the relation between the local monodromy operators at the two regular singularities and the non-linear Stokes phenomenon at the irregular singularity of the limit system. The problem of analytic classification is also addressed.
