24. There is no precise explanation in Ref. 8 of the difference between "regular" and "singular" solutions, but rather an analogy is given. It would seem that Bampi and Caviglia (Ref. 8) view the distinction as simply a technical matter: Solutions involving the maximal Cartan characters are "regular" solutions, while solutions from a prolonged system with less than the maximal Cartan characters are "singular" solutions.
