Abstract
We prove Malgrange's conjecture on the absence of confluence phenomena for integrable meromorphic connections. More precisely, if is a complex-analytic fibration by smooth curves, a hypersurface of finite over , and an integrable meromorphic connection on with poles along , then the function which attaches to {\smit x} the sum of the irregularities of the fiber at the points of is lower semicontinuous. The proof relies upon a study of the formal structure of integrable meromorphic connections in several variables.
