Abstract

A Chen generating series, along a path and with respect to mm differential forms,is a noncommutative series on mm letters and with coefficients which are holomorphic functionsover a simply connected manifold in other words a series with variable (holomorphic) coefficients.Such a series satisfies a first order noncommutative differential equation which is considered, bysome authors, as the universal differential equation, (i.e.) universality can beseen by replacing each letter by constant matrices (resp. analytic vector fields)and then solving a system of linear (resp. nonlinear) differential equations.Via rational series, on noncommutative indeterminates and with coefficients in rings, andtheir non-trivial combinatorial Hopf algebras, we give the first step of a noncommutativePicard-Vessiot theory and we illustrate it with the case of linear differential equationswith singular regular singularities thanks to the universal equation previously mentioned.
