We prove that if y"=f(y,y',t) is a generic Painlev\'e equation from the class III and VI, and if y_1,...,y_n are distinct solutions, then y_1,y_1',...,y_n,y_n' are algebraically independent over C(t). This improves the weaker results…
The Painlev\'e equations possess transcendental solutions $y(t)$ with special initial values that are symmetric under rotation or reflection in the complex $t$-plane. They correspond to monodromy problems that are explicitly solvable in…
We will study two types of special solutions of the sixth Painleve equation, which are invariant under the symmetries obtained from the Backlund transformations. In most cases, the fixed points of the Backlund transformations are classical…
We found Fuchs--Garnier pairs in 3X3 matrices for the first and second Painleve' equations which are linear in the spectral parameter. As an application of our pairs for the second Painleve' equation we use the generalized Laplace transform…
A new integrable sixth-order nonlinear wave equation is discovered by means of the Painleve analysis, which is equivalent to the Korteweg - de Vries equation with a source. A Lax representation and a Backlund self-transformation are found…
The author provides a solution to the equation $ y(s+2) = \mathcal{T}^2 y = F(s,y,\mathcal{T} y) = F(s,y(s),y(s+1))$; where $y$ is holomorphic; and $F$ is a holomorphic function with specific decay conditions. This result is provided using…

We examine quantum extensions of the continuous Painlev\'e equations, expressed as systems of first-order differential equations for non-commuting objects. We focus on the Painlev\'e equations II, IV and V. From their auto-B\"acklund…
Let $A$ be a transcendental entire function of finite order. We show that if the differential equation $w''+Aw=0$ has two linearly independent solutions with only real zeros, then the order of $A$ must be an odd integer or one half of an…
It is well known that the sixth Painlev\'e equation $\PVI$ admits a group of B\"acklund transformations which is isomorphic to the affine Weyl group of type $\mathrm{D}_4^{(1)}$. Although various aspects of this unexpectedly large symmetry…
