Abstract
We obtain asymptotic formulas for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of
the operator generated by a system of ordinary differential equations with summable
coefficients and the quasiperiodic boundary conditions. Using these asymptotic formulas,
we find conditions on the coefficients for which the root functions of this operator
form a Riesz basis. Then, we obtain the uniformly convergent spectral expansion of
the differential operators with the periodic matrix coefficients.
