Formal Solutions of a Class of Pfaffian Systems in Two Variables

Abstract

In this paper, we present an algorithm which computes a fundamental matrix of formal solutions of completely integrable Pfaffian systems with normal crossings in two variables, based on (Barkatou, 1997). A first step was set in (Barkatou-LeRoux, 2006) where the problem of rank reduction was tackled via the approach of (Levelt, 1991). We give instead a Moser-based approach. And, as a complementary step, we associate to our problem a system of ordinary linear singular differential equations from which the formal invariants can be efficiently derived via the package ISOLDE, implemented in the computer algebra system Maple.
