We introduce a method to estimate the size of the domain of definition of the solutions of a meromorphic vector field on a neighborhood of its pole divisor. The corresponding techniques are, in a certain sense, quantitative versions of some well-known phenomena related to the presence of metrics with positive curvature. Several applications of these ideas are provided including a type of "confinement theorem" for solutions of complete polynomial vector fields on ℂn and obstructions for certain (germs of) vector fields to be realized by a global holomorphic vector field on a compact Kähler manifold. As a complement a new approach to certain classical equations is proposed and detailed in the case of Halphen equations.
