Irreducible connections admit generic oper structures

Abstract

Let G be a connected reductive group and X be a smooth curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that every meromorphic G-connection on X admits a possibly degenerate oper structure; in particular, every irreducible meromorphic G-connection admits a generic oper structure.
