Review text

The paper centers itself on exponential asymptotic or hyperasymptotic techniques, which are to say, where the asymptotic approximations are relatively exponentially small. These approximations are shown by the author to yield greater accuracy as compared to asymptotic expansions of Poincaré type that are algebraically small. The author proves very nice regions of validity for the expansions. The author then applies the theories of hyperasymptotic expansions to solutions of differential equations and for integrals with one or more saddles. The main tool implemented is the Borel transform, which then transforms the divergent asymptotic expansions into convergent series. The paper begins with a very nice review of classical asymptotics and then leads into hyperasymptotics in a very neatly organized fashion. I recommend the paper to anyone wishing to learn about asymptotics together with the seasoned researcher wanting to read a very careful and comprehensive development on new results in the area of hyperasymptotics. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1015.00020].
