Stokes phenomenon and confluence in non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems (Q1617246)

In this article, the author is interested in the confluence of a pair of regular singular points to an irregular one in a generic family of time-dependent Hamiltonian systems in dimension \(2\). His main result is to prove a theorem of sectorial normalization of the family to an integrable formal normal form, through which one can make explicit the relation between the local monodromy operators at the two regular singularities and the nonlinear Stokes phenomenon at the irregular singularity of the limit system. To do that, the author is based on a result of [\textit{J. Hurtubise} et al., Mosc. Math. J. 14, No. 2, 309--338 (2014; Zbl 1302.34131)], [\textit{C. Lambert} and \textit{C. Rousseau}, ibid. 12, No. 1, 77--138 (2012; Zbl 1263.34127)], [\textit{P. Mardešić} et al., ibid. 4, No. 2, 455--502 (2004; Zbl 1077.37035)], [\textit{C. Rousseau} and \textit{L. Teyssier}, ibid. 8, No. 3, 547--614 (2008; Zbl 1165.37016)], . As an illustration of the main theorem, the author presents a study on the degeneration of the sixth Painlevé equation to the fifth one. This latter will be completed in a forthcoming article [\textit{M. Klimeš}, ``Non-linear Stokes phenomenon in the fifth Painlevé equation and a wild monodromy action on the character variety'' (to appear)].
