In this paper, we study the second member of the second Painlev\'e hierarchy $P_{II}^{(2)}$. We show that the birational transformations take this equation to the polynomial Hamiltonian system in dimension four, and this Hamiltonian system…
B\"acklund transformations (BTs) are traditionally regarded as a tool for integrating nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). Their use has been recently extended, however, to problems such as the construction of recursion…

A birational transformation is one which leaves invariant an ordinary differential equation, only changing its parameters. We first recall the consistent truncation which has allowed us to obtain the first degree birational transformation…
