We consider the generalized Painlev\'e--Ince equation, \begin{equation*} \ddot{x}+\alpha x\dot{x}+\beta x^{3}=0 \end{equation*} and we perform a detailed study in terms of symmetry analysis and of the singularity analysis. When the free…

The Painlev\'e classification is one of the central problems in analytics theory of differential equations rooted in the XIX century. Although it saw many significant advances in analyzing certain classes of equations, the classification…
We study well-posedness and long time behavior of the nonlinear Vlasov-Poisson- Fokker-Planck system with an external confining potential. The system describes the time evolution of particles (e.g.$\,\,$in a plasma) undergoing diffusion,…
We prove that solutions of the 3D relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system can be extended, as long as the quantity $\sigma_{-1}(t, x) = \max_{|\omega|=1} \,\int_{R^3} \frac{dp}{\sqrt{1+p^2}}\, \frac{1}{(1+v\cdot\omega)}\, f(t, x, p)$ is bounded…
A starting point for deriving the Vlasov equation is the BBGKY hierarchy that describes the dynamics of coupled marginal distribution functions. With a large value of the plasma parameter one can justify eliminating 2-point correlations in…
The notions of equivalence and strict equivalence for order one differential equations are introduced. The more explicit notion of strict equivalence is applied to examples and questions concerning autonomous equations and equations having…
We prove the convergence of a spectral discretization of the Vlasov-Poisson system. The velocity term of the Vlasov equation is discretized using either Hermite functions on the infinite domain or Legendre polynomials on a bounded domain.…
A family of solutions of the Jacobi PDEs is investigated. This family is $n$-dimensional, of arbitrary nonlinearity and can be globally analyzed (thus improving the usual local scope of Darboux theorem). As an outcome of this analysis it is…
I begin from a particular field of generalised Puiseux series and investigate a class of nonlinear differential equations in the field. It is appeared that the main part of differential equation determines solvability and positions of…
The main subject of the paper is the so-called Discrete Painlev\'e-1 Equation (DP1). Solutions of the DP1 are classified under criterion of their behavior while argument tends to infinity. The appropriate theorems of existence are proved.
We address the existence of stationary solutions of the Vlasov-Poisson system on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ describing a high-temperature plasma which due to the influence of an external magnetic field is spatially confined to a…
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 Volterra lattice admits two non-Abelian analogs that preserve the integrability property. For each of them, the stationary equation for non-autonomous symmetries defines a constraint that is consistent with the lattice and leads to…
A new computational method to solve the hyperbolic (Vlasov) equation and the elliptic (Poisson-like) equation at the polar axis is proposed. It is shown that the value of a scalar function at the polar axis can be predicted by its…
We examine quantum extensions of the continuous Painlev\'e equations, expressed as systems of first-order differential equations for non-commuting objects. We focus on the Painlev\'e equations II, IV and V. From their auto-B\"acklund…

As a new application of the method of "uniform asymptotics" proposed by Bassom, Clarkson, Law and McLeod, we provide a simpler and more rigorous proof of the connection formulas of some special solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation,…
We consider the 1/2-dimensional relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system that describes the time-evolution of a plasma. We find a relatively simple criterion for spectral instability of a wide class of equilibria. This class includes…
We investigate the Painleve analysis for a (2+1) dimensional Camassa-Holm equation. Our results show that it admits only weak Painleve expansions. This then confirms the limitations of the Painleve test as a test for complete integrability…
