In this paper we study analytic (linear or) nonlinear systems of ordinary differential equations, at an irregular singularity of rank one, under nonresonance conditions. It is shown that the formal asymptotic exponential series solutions…
In many physical problems, it is important to capture exponentially-small effects that lie beyond-all-orders of a typical asymptotic expansion; when collected, the full expansion is known as the trans-series. Applied exponential asymptotics…
This text is about the mathematical use of certain divergent power series. The first part is an introduction to 1-summability. The definitions rely on the formal Borel transform and the Laplace transform along an arbitrary direction of the…
Through Borel summation, one can often reconstruct an analytic solution of a problem from its asymptotic expansion. We view the effectiveness of Borel summation as a regularity property of the solution, and we show that the solutions of…
We consider a class of $n^{\text{th}}$-order linear ordinary differential equations with a large parameter $u$. Analytic solutions of these equations can be described by (divergent) formal series in descending powers of $u$. We demonstrate…
Borel summable divergent series usually appear when studying solutions of analytic ODE near a multiple singular point. Their sum, uniquely defined in certain sectors of the complex plane, is obtained via the Borel--Laplace transformation.…
Transseries in the sense of \'Ecalle are constructed using a topological approach. A general contractive mapping principle is formulated and proved, showing the closure of transseries under a wide class of operations. In the second part we…
A precise description of the singularities of the Borel transform of solutions of a level-one linear differential system is deduced from a proof of the summable-resurgence of the solutions by the perturbative method of J. \'Ecalle. Then we…
The paper addresses generalized Borel summability of ``$1^+$'' difference equations in ``critical time''. We show that the Borel transform $Y$ of a prototypical such equation is analytic and exponentially bounded for $\Re(p)<1$ but there is…
The higher-order Stokes phenomenon can emerge in the asymptotic analysis of many problems governed by singular perturbations. Indeed, over the last two decades, the phenomena has appeared in many physical applications, from acoustic and…
It is well known that perturbative expansions of path integrals are divergent. These expansions are to be understood as asymptotic expansions, which encode the limiting behaviour of the path integral for positive small coupling.…
We prove that the formal $\hbar$-power series solution of the deformed Painlev\'{e} I equation is resurgent, which means it is generically Borel summable and its Borel transform admits endless analytic continuation. In particular, we find…
We show that a formal power series has positive radius of convergence if and only if it is uniformly Borel summable over a circle with center at the origin. Consequently, we obtain that an entire function $f$ is of exponential type if and…
In a companion paper, Grimshaw (Asymptotic Methods in Fluid Mechanics, 2010, pp. 71-120) has demonstrated how techniques of Borel summation can be used to elucidate the exponentially small terms that lie hidden beyond all orders of a…
We analyze truncated series generated as divergent formal solutions of non-linear ordinary differential equations. Motivating the study is a specific non-linear, first-order differential equation, which is the basis of the resurgent…
Hyperasymptotics is an analytical method that incorporates exponentially small contributions into asymptotic approximations, thereby expanding their domain of validity, improving accuracy, and providing deeper insight into the underlying…
The Euler-MacLaurin summation formula relates a sum of a function to a corresponding integral, with a remainder term. The remainder term has an asymptotic expansion, and for a typical analytic function, it is a divergent (Gevrey-1) series.…
Borel summable semiclassical expansions in 1D quantum mechanics are considered. These are the Borel summable expansions of fundamental solutions and of quantities constructed with their help. An expansion, called topological,is constructed…
We construct a new type of convergent asymptotic representations, dyadic factorial expansions. Their convergence is geometric and the region of convergence can include Stokes rays, and often extends down to 0^+. For special functions such…
We investigate geometric aspects of co-equational parametric resurgence, by studying physical problems whose formal asymptotic solutions give rise to Borel transforms lying on an algebraic curve. This perspective allows us to elucidate…
