In recent years, the Fourier series (Zak transform) structure of the Painlev\'e I tau function has emerged in multiple contexts. Its main building block admits several conjectural interpretations, such as the partition function of an…
Various properties of algebroid solutions of the degenerate third Painlev\'e equation, \begin{equation*} u^{\prime \prime}(\tau) \! = \! \frac{(u^{\prime}(\tau))^{2}}{u(\tau)} \! - \! \frac{u^{\prime}(\tau)}{\tau} \! + \! \frac{1}{\tau} \!…
We extend Painlev\'e's determinateness theorem to the case of first order ordinary differential equations in the complex domain with known terms allowed be multivalued in the dependent variable as well; multivaluedness is supposed to be…
We give a proof of a Conjecture of Walker which states that one can recover the lengths of the bars of a circular linkage from the cohomology ring of the configuration space. For a large class of length vectors, this has been shown by…
We consider an application of Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants to the theory of the sixth Painlev\'e and Gauss hypergeometric functions: two classical special functions of the isomonodromy type. It is shown that, higher order…
This paper studies the monic semi-classical Laguerre polynomials based on previous work by Boelen and Van Assche \cite{Boelen}, Filipuk et al. \cite{Filipuk} and Clarkson and Jordaan \cite{Clarkson}. Filipuk, Van Assche and Zhang proved…
We consider the problem of reconstruction of an $n\times n$ matrix with coefficients depending rationally on $x\in \mathbb P^1$ from the data of: (a) its characteristic polynomial and (b) a line bundle of degree $g+n-1$, with $g$ the…
We discuss some physical consequences of the resurgent structure of Painleve equations and their related conformal block expansions. The resurgent structure of Painleve equations is particularly transparent when expressed in terms of…
The purpose of this article is to analyze the connection between Eynard-Orantin topological recursion and formal WKB solutions of a $\hbar$-difference equation: $\Psi(x+\hbar)=\left(e^{\hbar\frac{d}{dx}}\right) \Psi(x)=L(x;\hbar)\Psi(x)$…
Over the last decade it has become clear that discrete Painlev\'e equations appear in a wide range of important mathematical and physical problems. Thus, the question of recognizing a given non-autonomous recurrence as a discrete Painlev\'e…
This is a generalization of the procedure presented in [3] to construct semisimple bi-flat $F$-manifolds $(M,\nabla^{(1)},\nabla^{(2)},\circ,*,e,E)$ starting from homogeneous solutions of degree -1 of Darboux-Egorov-system. The Lam\'e…
In this paper, we establishes a connection between noncommutative Laurent biorthogonal polynomials (bi-OPs) and matrix discrete Painlev\'e (dP) equations. We first apply nonisospectral deformations to noncommutative Laurent bi-OPs to obtain…
We show that the Kontsevich integral on $n\times n$ matrices ($n< \infty$) is the isomonodromic tau function associated to a $2\times 2$ Riemann--Hilbert problem. The approach allows us to gain control of the analysis of the convergence as…
We apply the uniform asymptotics method proposed by Bassom, Clarkson, Law and McLeod to a special Painlev\'{e} V equation, and we provide a simpler and more rigorous proof of the connection formulas for a special solution of the equation,…
In recent work (math.QA/0309252) on multivariate hypergeometric integrals, the author generalized a conjectural integral formula of van Diejen and Spiridonov to a ten parameter integral provably invariant under an action of the Weyl group…
We briefly recall the Fuchs-Painlev\'e elliptic representation of Painlev\'e VI. We then show that the polynomiality of the expressions of the correlation functions (and form factors) in terms of the complete elliptic integral of the first…
We consider the discontinuous semi-classical Laguerre weight function with a jump $w(x;t,s)=\mathrm{e}^{-x^2+tx}(A+B\theta(x-s))$, where $x\in\mathbf{R}$, $t,s\ge0$, $A\ge0$, $A+B\ge0$, where $\theta(x)$ is 1 for $x > 0$ and 0 otherwise.…
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…
In a previous article [N. Delice, F.W. Nijhoff and S. Yoo-Kong, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 48(3) (2015), 035206] a novel class of elliptic Lax pairs for integrable lattice equations was introduced. The present article proposes a…
In this paper we obtain explicit expressions for tau-functions related to Picard type solutions of the Painlev\'e VI equation in terms of theta functions and their derivatives.
