For an algebraic vector bundle defined on an affine open set of the complex projective line and endowed with an algebraic connection and a nondegenerate pairing compatible with the connection, there exists a natural pairing (called the period pairing) between the first de Rham cohomology space and the twisted homology space on the associated analytic space. There also exists a similar pairing between the de Rham cohomology with compact support and the Borel-Moore twisted homology. In many examples these pairings coincide. In the general case there exists a relation between their matrices. This relation is then regarded as a family of polynomial relations of degree two between the entries of the period matrix. The authors prove the existence of quadratic relations between periods of meromorphic flat bundles on complex manifolds with poles along a divisor with normal crossings under the assumption of ``goodness''. In dimension one, for which goodness is always satisfied, they provide methods to compute the various pairings involved. In an appendix, they recall some classical results needed for the proofs.
