Formal solutions of linear PDEs and convex polyhedra. Effective methods in rings of differential operators. (Q5960302)

In the paper the authors connect Malgrange's technique [see \textit{B. Malgrange}, Equations différen\-tielles à coefficients polynomiaux. Progress in Mathematics, vol. 96, Boston: Birkhäuser (1991; Zbl 0764.32001)] and McDonald's technique [see \textit{J. McDonald}, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 104, No. 2, 213--233 (1995; Zbl 0842.52009)] in order to give a term-by-term algorithm for finding solutions at a singularity of a linear partial differential equation. The solutions found involve exponentials, logarithms and Laurent power series with exponents contained in a strongly convex cone.
