We present the bilinear forms of the (continuous) Painlev\'e equations obtained from the continuous limit of the analogous expresssions for the discrete ones. The advantage of this method is that it leads to very symmetrical results. A new…

We study polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to a varying quartic weight \exp(-N(x^2/2+tx^4/4)) for t<0, where the orthogonality takes place on certain contours in the complex plane. Inspired by developments in 2D quantum gravity,…

We derive a $q$-analogue of the matrix sixth Painlev\'e system via a connection-preserving deformation of a certain Fuchsian linear $q$-difference system. In specifying the linear $q$-difference system, we utilize the correspondence between…
A class of special solutions are constructed in an intuitive way for the ultradiscrete analog of $q$-Painlev\'e II ($q$-PII) equation. The solutions are classified into four groups depending on the function-type and the system parameter.
We show that difference Painleve equations can be interpreted as isomorphisms of moduli spaces of d-connections on the projective line with given singularity structure. We also derive a new difference equation. It is the most general…

The article is devoted to the existence of solutions of a certain system of quadratic integral equations in H^1(R, R^N). We show the existence of a perturbed solution by using a fixed point technique in the Sobolev space on the real line.
Let $V$, $\tilde V$ be hypersurface germs in $\CC^m$, each having a quasi-homogeneous isolated singularity at the origin. We show that the biholomorphic equivalence problem for $V$, $\tilde V$ reduces to the linear equivalence problem for…
We study a second-order linear differential equation known as the deformed cubic oscillator, whose isomonodromic deformations are controlled by the first Painlev{\'e} equation. We use the generalised monodromy map for this equation to give…
Using a variational method we prove the existence of nodal solutions to prescribed scalar Q- curvature type equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary; these equations are fourth-order elliptic equations with critical Sobolev…
Hypergeometric solutions to the q-Painlev\'e equations are constructed by direct linearization of disrcrete Riccati equations. The decoupling factors are explicitly determined so that the linear systems give rise to q-hypergeometric…
