Higher order Poincare-Pontryagin functions and iterated path integrals
Abstract
Description
We prove that the higher order Poincare-Pontryagin functions associated to the perturbed polynomial foliation $df -ε(P dx + Q dy) =0$ satisfy a differential equation of Fuchs type.
This is a revised version containing the following changes: reference [18] is added, some notations are changed, the proof of Theorem 1 is corrected, Theorem B1 and B2 are replaced now by Theorem B, some signs are corrected in the Appendix.
