We give a classification for the small-$\tau$ asymptotic behaviours of solutions to the degenerate third Painlev\'e equation, $u^{''}(\tau) = \frac{(u^{\prime}(\tau))^{2}}{u(\tau)} - \frac{u^{\prime}(\tau)}{\tau} + \frac{1}{\tau}\left(-8…
Asymptotic expansions are given for large values of $n$ of the generalized Bessel polynomials $Y_n^\mu(z)$. The analysis is based on integrals that follow from the generating functions of the polynomials. A new simple expansion is given…
In this paper we study strong coupling asymptotic expansions of ${\mathcal N}=2$ $D=4$ $SU(2)$ gauge theory partition functions in general $\Omega$-background. This is done by refining Painlev\'e/gauge theory correspondence in terms of…
In this work we show that the $ N\times N $ Toeplitz determinants with the symbols $ z^{\mu}\exp(-{1/2}\sqrt{t}(z+1/z)) $ and $ (1+z)^{\mu}(1+1/z)^{\nu}\exp(tz) $ -- known $\tau$-functions for the \PIIIa and \PV systems -- are characterised…
We introduce a version of the asymptotic expansions for Bessel functions $J_\nu(z)$, $Y_\nu(z)$ that is valid whenever $|z| > \nu$ (which is deep in the Fresnel regime), as opposed to the standard expansions that are applicable only in the…
We examine the asymptotic expansion of the Touchard polynomials $T_n(z)$ (also known as the exponential polynomials) for large $n$ and complex values of the variable $z$. In our treatment $|z|$ may be finite or allowed to be large like…

The asymptotic expansion of the Touchard polynomials $T_n(z)$ (also known as the exponential polynomials) for large $n$ and complex values of the variable $z$, where $|z|$ may be finite or allowed to be large like $O(n)$, has been recently…
The asymptotic behavior of solutions to the second-order linear differential equation $d^{2}w/dz^{2}=\{u^{2}f(\alpha,z)+g(z)\}w$ is analyzed for a large real parameter $u$ and $\alpha\in[0,\alpha_{0}]$, where $\alpha_{0}>0$ is fixed. The…

We analyze the asymptotic properties a special solution of the $(3,4)$ string equation, which appears in the study of the multicritical quartic $2$-matrix model. In particular, we show that in a certain parameter regime, the corresponding…
Asymptotic expansions are obtained for contour integrals of the form \[ \int_a^b \exp \left( - zp(t) + z^{\nu /\mu } r(t) \right)q(t)dt, \] in which $z$ is a large real or complex parameter, $p(t)$, $q(t)$ and $r(t)$ are analytic functions…
In this paper we compute some of the higher order terms in the large-t asymptotic expansion of the Airy process two-point function, extending the previous work of Adler and van Moerbeke and Widom. We prove that it is possible to represent…
Linear second-order ordinary differential equations of the form $d^{2}w/dz^{2}=\{u^{2}f(a,z)$ $+g(z)\}w$ are studied for large values of the real parameter $u$, where $z$ ranges over a bounded or unbounded complex domain $Z$, and $a_{0} \le…
In this survey, we review asymptotic results of some orthogonal polynomials which are relate to the Painlev\'e transcendents. They are obtained by applying Deift-Zhou's nonlinear steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems. In the…
The Riemann-Hilbert method is employed to carry out an asymptotic analysis of a family of $\sigma$-Painlev\'e V functions associated with Hankel determinants involving the confluent hypergeometric function of the second kind. In the…
Using a differential equation approach asymptotic expansions are rigorously obtained for Lommel, Weber, Anger-Weber and Struve functions, as well as Neumann polynomials, each of which is a solution of an inhomogeneous Bessel equation. The…
In this paper, we consider Cauchy problem for the modified Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy on the real line with decaying initial data. Using the Riemann--Hilbert formulation and nonlinear steepest descent method, we derive a uniform asymptotic…
