An asymptotic field is a special type of Hardy field in which, modulo an oracle for constants, one can determine asymptotic behaviour of elements. In a previous paper, it was shown in particular that limits of real Liouvillian functions can thereby be computed. Let ℱ denote an asymptotic field and let f ∈ ℱ. We prove here that if G is meromorphic at the limit of f (which may be infinite) and satisfies an algebraic differential equation over R( x ), then ℱ ( G o f ) is an asymptotic field. Hence it is possible (modulo an oracle for constants) to compute asymptotic forms for elements of ℱ( G o f ). An example is given to show that the result may fail if G has an essential singularity at lim f .
