In previous articles we have studied the A_n tt*-Toda equations (topological-antitopological fusion equations of Toda type) of Cecotti and Vafa, giving details mainly for n=3. Here we give a proof of the existence and uniqueness of global…
The small t asymptotics of a class of solutions to the 2D cylindrical Toda equations is computed. The solutions, q_k(t), have the representation q_k(t) = log det(I-lambda K_k) - log det(I-lambda K_{k-1}) where K_k are integral operators.…
We evaluate explicitly, in terms of the asymptotic data, the ratio of the constant pre-factors in the large and small $x$ asymptotics of the tau functions for global solutions of the tt{*}-Toda equations. This constant problem for the…
We describe all smooth solutions of the two-function tt*-Toda equations (a version of the tt* equations, or equations for harmonic maps into SL(n,R)/SO(n)) in terms of (i) asymptotic data, (ii) holomorphic data, and (iii) monodromy data.…
Smoothed analysis of complexity bounds and condition numbers has been done, so far, on a case by case basis. In this paper we consider a reasonably large class of condition numbers for problems over the complex numbers and we obtain…
Although cosmological solutions to Einstein's equations are known to be generically singular, little is known about the nature of singularities in typical spacetimes. It is shown here how the operator splitting used in a particular…
In work of C. A. Tracy and the author asymptotic formulas were derived for certain operator determinants which gave solutions to the cylindrical Toda equations. Later the author considered a more general class of operators which retained…
In Part I (arXiv:1209.2045) we computed the Stokes data, though not the "connection matrix", for the smooth solutions of the tt*-Toda equations whose existence we established by p.d.e. methods. Here we give an alternative proof of the…
The behaviour of solutions to fourth order problems is studied through the decomposition into a system of second order ones, which leads to relaxed formulations with the introduction of measure terms. This allows to solve a shape…
We classify Toda-type tt*-structures in terms of the anti-symmetry condition. A Toda-type tt*-structure is a flat bundle whose flatness condition is the tt*-Toda equation (Guest-Its-Lin). We show that the Toda-type tt*-structure can be…
This paper, the third in a series, completes our description of all (radial) solutions on C* of the tt*-Toda equations, using a combination of methods from p.d.e., isomonodromic deformations (Riemann-Hilbert method), and loop groups. We…
The classical Painlev\'e equations are so well known that it may come as a surprise to learn that the asymptotic description of its solutions remains incomplete. The problem lies mainly with the description of families of solutions in the…
The asymptotic regimes of the N-site complex Toda chain (CTC) with fixed ends related to the classical series of simple Lie algebras are classified. It is shown that the CTC models have much richer variety of asymptotic regimes than the…
Using nonlinear pde techniques, we construct a new family of globally smooth tt* structures. This includes tt* structures associated to the (orbifold) quantum cohomology of a finite number of complex projective spaces and weighted…

Large-time asymptotic properties of solutions to a class of semilinear stochastic wave equations with damping in a bounded domain are considered. First an energy inequality and the exponential bound for a linear stochastic equation are…

For a large integer $m,$ we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions of a certain congruence modulo $m$ with four variables, where the variables belong to special sets of residue classes modulo $m.$ This formula are applied…
Singularly-perturbed ordinary differential equations often exhibit Stokes' phenomenon, which describes the appearance and disappearance of oscillating exponentially small terms across curves in the complex plane known as Stokes curves.…
We explain how to find the asymptotic form of fixed point solutions in functional truncations, in particular $f(R)$ approximations. We find that quantum fluctuations do not decouple at large $R$, typically leading to elaborate asymptotic…
