The critical behavior of a three real parameter class of solutions of the sixth Painlev\'e equation is computed, and parametrized in terms of monodromy data of the associated $2\times 2$ matrix linear Fuchsian system of ODE. The class may…

This paper concerns the discrete version of the Painlev\'e identification problem, i.e., how to recognize a certain recurrence relation as a discrete Painlev\'e equation. Often some clues can be seen from the setting of the problem, e.g.,…

There is an abundance of equations of Painlev\'e type besides the classical Painlev\'e equations. Classifications have been computed by the Japanese school. Here we consider Painlev\'e type equations induced by isomonodromic families of…

The discrete Painlev\'e I equation (dP$\rm_I$) is an integrable difference equation which has the classical first Painlev\'e equation (P$\rm_I$) as a continuum limit. dP$\rm_I$ is believed to be integrable because it is the discrete…

All Hamiltonian non-abelian Painlev\'e systems of ${\rm{P}}_{1}-{\rm{P}}_{6}$ type with constant coefficients are found. For ${\rm{P}}_{1}-{\rm{P}}_{5}$ systems, we replace an appropriate inessential constant parameter with a non-abelian…

We present the bilinear forms of the (continuous) Painlev\'e equations obtained from the continuous limit of the analogous expresssions for the discrete ones. The advantage of this method is that it leads to very symmetrical results. A new…

We study singularity confinement phenomena in examples of delay-differential Painlev\'e equations, which involve shifts and derivatives with respect to a single independent variable. We propose a geometric interpretation of our results in…

The isomonodromy deformation equation for a 2x2 matrix linear ODE with a large parameter can be locally reduced to a (hyper)elliptic equation. To globalize this result, we apply the isomonodromy deformation method and obtain the modulation…

We develop a class of uniformizations for certain weight 3 variations of Hodge structure (VHS). The analytic properties of the VHS are used to establish a conjecture of Eskin, Kontsevich, M\"oller, and Zorich on Lyapunov exponents.…

The Painlev\'e--Kovalevskaya test is applied to find three matrix versions of the Painlev\'e II equation. All these equations are interpreted as group-invariant reductions of integrable matrix evolution equations, which makes it possible to…

We study the classical c\to \infty limit of the Virasoro conformal blocks. We point out that the classical limit of the simplest nontrivial null-vector decoupling equation on a sphere leads to the Painleve VI equation. This gives the…

In this note, we review the notion of Painlev\'e scheme of the sixth Painlev\'e equation from the viewpoint of accessible singular point and its local index in the Hirzebruch surface of degree two ${\Sigma_2}$. The key method is Painlev\'e…

We consider a linear $2\times2$ matrix ODE with two coalescing regular singularities. This coalescence is restricted with an isomonodromy condition with respect to the distance between the merging singularities in a way consistent with the…
