Abstract: Rigorous asymptotic approximations of the WKB (or Liouville-Green) type are obtained for a basis of solutions to $y''+[\alpha +g(t)]y=0$ in the framework of $C^\ast $-algebras. Both cases $\alpha >0$ and $\alpha <0$ are included, thus generalizing the classical theory for scalar equations developed by F.W.J. Olver to matrix as well as to infinite-dimensional equations.
