Abstract: We consider small polynomial deformations of integrable systems of the form dF=0, FinmathbbC[x,y] and the first nonzero term Mmu of the displacement function Delta(t,epsilon)=sumi=muMi(t)epsiloni along a cycle gamma(t)inF1(t). It is known that Mmu is an iterated integral of length at most mu. The bound mu depends on the deformation of dF. In this paper we give a universal bound for the length of the iterated integral expressing the first nonzero term Mmu depending only on the topology of the unperturbed system dF=0. The result generalizes the result of Gavrilov and Iliev providing a sufficient condition for Mmu to be given by an abelian integral i.e. by an iterated integral of length 1. We conjecture that our bound is optimal.
