Abstract

We consider a nonlinear singularly perturbed PDE leaning on a complex perturbation parameter ϵ\epsilon. The problem possesses an irregular singularity in time at the origin and involves a set of so-called moving turning points merging to 0 with ϵ\epsilon. We construct outer solutions for time located in complex sectors that are kept away from the origin at a distance equivalent to a positive power of ϵ|\epsilon| and we build up a related family of sectorial holomorphic inner solutions for small time inside some boundary layer. We show that both outer and inner solutions have Gevrey asymptotic expansions as ϵ\epsilon tends to 0 on appropriate sets of sectors that cover a neighborhood of the origin in C\mathbb{C}^{\ast}. We observe that their Gevrey orders are distinct in general.
