Following his earlier work [Math. Nachr. 281, 1341--1350 (2008; Zbl 1168.34054)] on the special case \(n=2\), the author obtains asymptotic formulae for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a system of \(n\)th order linear ordinary differential equations with summable (not necessarily continuous) complex-valued coefficients with quasiperiodic boundary conditions. These are used to find conditions on the coefficients for which the number of gaps in the spectrum of a self-adjoint differential operator with periodic coefficients is finite.
