Abstract

We study singularly perturbed linear systems of rank two of ordinary differential equations of the form xxψ(x,)+A(x,)ψ(x,)=0\hbar x\partial_x \psi (x, \hbar) + A (x, \hbar) \psi (x, \hbar) = 0, with a regular singularity at x=0x = 0, and with a fixed asymptotic regularity in the perturbation parameter \hbar of Gevrey type in a fixed sector. We show that such systems can be put into an upper-triangular form by means of holomorphic gauge transformations which are also Gevrey in the perturbation parameter \hbar in the same sector. We use this result to construct a family in \hbar of Levelt filtrations which specialise to the usual Levelt filtration for every fixed nonzero value of \hbar; this family of filtrations recovers in the 0\hbar \to 0 limit the eigen-decomposition for the \hbar-leading-order of the matrix A(x,)A (x, \hbar), and also recovers in the x0x \to 0 limit the eigen-decomposition of the residue matrix A(0,)A (0, \hbar).
