Abstract

In literature, it is known that any solution of Painlev\'{e} VI equation governs the isomonodromic deformation of a second order linear Fuchsian ODE on CP1\mathbb{CP}^{1}. In this paper, we extend this isomonodromy theory on CP1\mathbb{CP}^{1} to the moduli space of elliptic curves by studying the isomonodromic deformation of the generalized Lam\'{e} equation. Among other things, we prove that the isomonodromic equation is a new Hamiltonian system, which is equivalent to the elliptic form of Painlev\'{e} VI equation for generic parameters. For Painlev\'{e} VI equation with some special parameters, the isomonodromy theory of the generalized Lam\'{e} equation greatly simplifies the computation of the monodromy group in CP1\mathbb{CP}^{1}. This is one of the advantages of the elliptic form.
