Abstract

Model theoretic ranks of solutions to Painleve equations are calculated, and the type of the generic solution of the second Painleve equation is shown to be disintegrated, strengthening a theorem of Nagloo. A question of Hrushovski and Scanlon regarding Lascar rank and Morley rank in differential fields is answered using planar vector fields.
