The `restoration method' is a novel method we recently introduced for systematically deriving discrete Painlev\'e equations. In this method we start from a given Painlev\'e equation, typically with E$_8^{(1)}$ symmetry, obtain its…
We present a systematic method for the construction of discrete Painlev\'e equations. The method, dubbed `restoration', allows one to obtain all discrete Painlev\'e equations that share a common autonomous limit, up to homographic…
Starting from the standard form of the five discrete Painlev\'e equations we show how one can obtain (through appropriate limits) a host of new equations which are also the discrete analogues of the continuous Painlev\'e equations. A…
Discrete Painlev\'e equations are integrable two-dimensional birational maps associated to a family of generalized Halphen surfaces. The latter can be seen either as $\mathbb P^2$ blown up at nine points or as $\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1$…
It is well known that two-dimensional mappings preserving a rational elliptic fibration, like the Quispel-Roberts-Thompson mappings, can be deautonomized to discrete Painlev\'e equations. However, the dependence of this procedure on the…
We derive the discrete Painlev\'e equations associated to the affine Weyl group E$_8^{(1)}$ that can be represented by an (in the QRT sense) "asymmetric" trihomographic system. The method used in this paper is based on singularity…
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…
In this paper we propose a geometric approach to study Painlev\'e equations appearing as constrained systems of three first-order ordinary differential equations. We illustrate this approach on a system of three first-order differential…
Higher dimensional analogs of the Painlev\'e equations have been proposed from various aspects. In recent studies, 4-dimensional analogs of the Painlev\'e equations were classified into 40 types. The aim of the present paper is to…
Discrete Painlev\'e equations constitute a famous class of integrable non-autonomous second order difference equations. A classification scheme proposed by Sakai interprets a discrete Painlev\'e equation as a birational map between…
A geometric study of two 4-dimensional mappings is given. By the resolution of indeterminacy they are lifted to pseudo-automorphisms of rational varieties obtained from $({\mathbb P}^1)^4$ by blowing-up along sixteen 2-dimensional…
We derive integrable equations starting from autonomous mappings with a general form inspired by the multiplicative systems associated to the affine Weyl group E$_8^{(1)}$. Five such systems are obtained, three of which turn out to be…
In this paper we obtain a system of flat coordinates on the monodromy manifold of each of the Painlev\'e equations. This allows us to quantise such manifolds. We produce a quantum confluence procedure between cubics in such a way that…
We express discrete Painlev\'e equations as discrete Hamiltonian systems. The discrete Hamiltonian systems here mean the canonical transformations defined by generating functions. Our construction relies on the classification of the…
We present a geometric study of a four-dimensional integrable discrete dynamical system which extends the autonomous form of a $q$-Painlev\'e I equation with symmetry of type $A_1^{(1)}$. By resolution of singularities it is lifted to a…
We derive integrable equations starting from autonomous mappings with a general form inspired by the additive systems associated to the affine Weyl group E$_8^{(1)}$. By deautonomisation we obtain two hitherto unknown systems, one of which…
In this paper a comprehensive review is given on the current status of achievements in the geometric aspects of the Painlev\'e equations, with a particular emphasis on the discrete Painlev\'e equations. The theory is controlled by the…
We examine the validity of the results obtained with the singularity confinement integrability criterion in the case of discrete Painlev\'e equations. The method used is based on the requirement of non-exponential growth of the homogeneous…
The deautonomisation of birational maps that have the singularity confinement property, i.e. the construction of nonautonomous versions of such maps that preserve the singularity properties of the original, has proven crucial in our…
