For transcendental functions that solve non-linear $q$-difference equations, the best descriptions available are the ones obtained by expansion near critical points at the origin and infinity. We describe such solutions of a $q$-discrete…
We consider the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of the first $q$-difference Painlev\'{e} equation in the limits $|q|\rightarrow 1$ and $n\rightarrow\infty$. Using asymptotic power series, we describe four families of solutions that…
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 consider solutions of a discrete Painlev\'e equation arising from a construction of quantum minimal surfaces by Arnlind, Hoppe and Kontsevich, and in earlier work of Cornalba and Taylor on static membranes. While the discrete equation…
This manuscript develops a novel understanding of non-polar solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e I equation (dP1). As the non-autonomous counterpart of an analytically completely integrable difference equation, this system is endowed with a…
We present the discrete, q-, form of the Painlev\'e VI equation written as a three-point mapping and analyse the structure of its singularities. This discrete equation goes over to P_{VI} at the continuous limit and degenerates towards the…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of the fourth Pain\-lev\'e equation as the independent variable goes to infinity in its space of (complex) initial values, which is a generalisation of phase space described by Okamoto. We show…

The geometric approach for Painlev\'e and quasi-Painlev\'e differential equations in the complex plane is applied to non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems, quartic in the dependent variables. By computing their defining manifolds (analogue of…
A Riemann-Hilbert problem for a $q$-difference Painlev\'e equation, known as $q\textrm{P}_{\textrm{IV}}$, is shown to be solvable. This yields a bijective correspondence between the transcendental solutions of $q\textrm{P}_{\textrm{IV}}$…
We study the solutions of the second Painlev\'e equation in the space of initial conditions first constructed by Okamoto, in the limit as the independent variable, x, goes to infinity. Simultaneously, we study solutions of the related…
In this study, we consider the asymptotic behaviour of the first discrete Painlev\{e} equation in the limit as the independent variable becomes large. Using an asymptotic series expansion, we identify two types of solutions which are…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation as the independent variable approaches zero and infinity in the space of initial values. We show that the limit set of each solution is compact and…
We consider the q-Painlev\'e equation of type $A_4^{(1)}$ (a version of q-Painlev\'e V equation) and construct a family of solutions expressible in terms of certain basic hypergeometric series. We also present the determinant formula for…
The first five classical Painlev\'e equations are known to have solutions described by divergent asymptotic power series near infinity. Here we prove that such solutions also exist for the infinite hierarchy of equations associated with the…
A class of special solutions are constructed in an intuitive way for the ultradiscrete analog of $q$-Painlev\'e II ($q$-PII) equation. The solutions are classified into four groups depending on the function-type and the system parameter.
Using the Riemann-Hilbert approach, the $\Psi$-function corresponding to the solution of the first Painleve equation, $y_{xx}=6y^2+x$, with the asymptotic behavior $y\sim\pm\sqrt{-x/6}$ as $|x|\to\infty$ is constructed. The exponentially…
We study dynamics of solutions in the initial value space of the sixth Painlev\'e equation as the independent variable approaches zero. Our main results describe the repeller set, show that the number of poles and zeroes of general…
We investigate some of the discrete Painleve equations (dPII, qPI and qPII) and the discrete KdV equation over finite fields. The first part concerns the discrete Painleve equations. We review some of the ideas introduced in our previous…
This paper is divided in two parts. In the first part we consider irregular singular analytic q-difference equations, with q\in ]0,1[, and we show how the Borel sum of a divergent solution of a differential equation can be uniformly…
