The apparent-singularity conjecture for the associated third-order ODE
The apparent-singularity conjecture for the associated third-order ODE
Consider the third-order ODE
The point is an apparent singularity when the associated local monodromy is trivial. Let be the polynomial conditions obtained from the local Frobenius analysis, so that the corresponding polynomial system is
Apparent-singularity conjecture. The point is an apparent singularity if and only if ; equivalently, this polynomial system has only the trivial solution . This claim is presented as a further conjectural assertion about the reduced polynomial system; the supplied text gives no resolution.
