Abstract

We present an improved Painlevé test, which enables us to treat negative resonances. Since the method is explained in a recent paper [5] and in proceedings elsewhere, the present version is very short. We give a brief description of the method and outline three examples.

This is an outline of the lecture given by Allan Fordy and is dedicated to Alwyn Scott for his 60th birthday.
