We introduce and study isomonodromy transformations of the matrix linear difference equation Y(z+1)=A(z)Y(z) with polynomial (or rational) A(z). Our main result is a construction of an isomonodromy action of Z^{m(n+1)-1} on the space of…
In the present work we calculate the group structure of the Schlesinger transformations for isomonodromic deformations of order two Fuchsian differential equations. We perform these transformations as the isomorphisms between the moduli…

Hermite-Pad\'e approximants of type II are vectors of rational functions with common denominator that interpolate a given vector of power series at infinity with maximal order. We are interested in the situation when the approximated vector…

A class of Riemann-Hilbert problems corresponding to quasi-permutation monodromy matrices is solved in terms of Szeg\"o kernel on auxiliary Riemann surfaces. The tau-function of Schlesinger system turns out to be closely related to…
The Painleve-IV equation has two families of rational solutions generated respectively by the generalized Hermite polynomials and the generalized Okamoto polynomials. We apply the isomonodromy method to represent all of these rational…
Schlesinger transformations are algebraic transformations of a Fuchsian system that preserve its monodromy representation and act on the characteristic indices of the system by integral shifts. One of the important reasons to study such…
The type III Hermite $X_m$ exceptional orthogonal polynomial family is generalized to a double-indexed one $X_{m_1,m_2}$ (with $m_1$ even and $m_2$ odd such that $m_2 > m_1$) and the corresponding rational extensions of the harmonic…
