The integrability of a four-dimensional sixth-order bilinear equation associated with the exceptional affine Lie algebra $D_4^{(1)}$ is studied by means of the singularity analysis. This equation is shown to pass the Painlev\'{e} test in…

The first step when solving an infinite-dimensional eigenvalue problem is often to discretize it. We show that one must be extremely careful when discretizing nonlinear eigenvalue problems. Using examples, we show that discretization can:…

We study singularity confinement phenomena in examples of delay-differential Painlev\'e equations, which involve shifts and derivatives with respect to a single independent variable. We propose a geometric interpretation of our results in…
