Abstract

For first order differential equations of the form y=p=0PFp(x)ypy'=\sum_{p=0}^P F_p(x)y^p and second order homogeneous linear differential equations y+a(x)y+b(x)y=0y''+a(x)y'+b(x)y=0 with locally integrable coefficients having asymptotic (possibly divergent) power series when x|x|\to\infty on a ray arg(x)=\arg(x)=const, under some further assumptions, it is shown that, on the given ray, there is a one-to-one correspondence between true solutions and (complete) formal solutions. The correspondence is based on asymptotic inequalities which are required to be uniform in xx and optimal with respect to certain weights.
