Question: Using series/asympt for RootOf

Hello,

How do I tell maple which branch to choose when calculating an asymptotic series of a RootOf expression. e.g.

restart;

sol:=RootOf((8*n-8)*_Z^6+(n^4+36*n^2-68*n+56)*_Z^5+(n^5+10*n^4+80*n^3-200*n^2+224*n-152)*_Z^4+(n^6+28*n^5+69*n^4-268*n^3+468*n^2-356*n+200)*_Z^3+(3*n^7+32*n^6+7*n^5-204*n^4+380*n^3-544*n^2+272*n-128)*_Z^2+(3*n^8+14*n^7-20*n^6-32*n^5+252*n^4-240*n^3+304*n^2-80*n+32)*_Z-n^9-12*n^8-44*n^7-40*n^6-4*n^5-128*n^4+48*n^3-64*n^2);

asympt(sol,n,2);

 

Now the series contains RootOf(_Z^6-_Z^5) which occurs in the denominator to order 1/n and thus blows up if 0 is chosen. I know that the solution must be greater zero and smaller than n/2.
