The radius of convergence is equal to the distance of the closest singularity to the origin of $E(\lambda)$. Hence we need to determine the locations of the exceptional points to obtain information on the convergence properties. To find them we solve simultaneously Eqs.~\eqref{eq:PolChar} and \eqref{eq:DPolChar}. Equation \eqref{eq:PolChar} is the well-known secular equation giving the energies of the system where $\hI$ is the identity operator. If an energy is also solution of Eq.~\eqref{eq:DPolChar} then this energy is degenerate. In this case the energies obtained are dependent of $\lambda$ so solving those equations with respect to $E$ and $\lambda$ gives the value of $\lambda$ where two energies are degenerate. These degeneracies can be conical intersections between two states with different symmetry for real value of $\lambda$ or exceptional points between two states with the same symmetry for complex value of $\lambda$. +In this part, we will try to investigate how some parameters of $\hH(\lambda)$ influence the radius of convergence of the perturbation series.
