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…
In this work we propose a new method for investigating connection problems for the class of nonlinear second-order differential equations known as the Painlev{\'e} equations. Such problems can be characterized by the question as to how the…
Using dual perturbation theory in a non-sun-reflexive context, we establish a correspondence between 1. a class of nonlinear abstract delay differential equations (DDEs) with unbounded linear part and an unknown taking values in an…
We lecture on fundamental Painleve's early Theorems on first order ordinary differential equations with many examples. We end-up with two conjectures about the global analytic continuation of holonomy maps locally defined by Theorem II.
Folding transformation of the Painlev\'e equations is an algebraic (of degree greater than 1) transformation between solutions of different equations. In 2005 Tsuda, Okamoto and Sakai classified folding transformations of differential…
We find a four-parameter family of coupled Painlev\'e VI systems in dimension four with affine Weyl group symmetry of type $A_7^{(2)}$. This is the first example which gave higher-order Painlev\'e equations of type $A_{2l+5}^{(2)}$. We then…
We study the underlying relationship between Painleve equations and infinite-dimensional integrable systems, such as the KP and UC hierarchies. We show that a certain reduction of these hierarchies by requiring homogeneity and periodicity…
The third Painlev\'e equation in its generic form, often referred to as Painlev\'e-III($D_6$), is given by $$ \frac{{\rm d}^2u}{{\rm d}x^2} =\frac{1}{u}\left(\frac{{\rm d}u}{{\rm d}x}\right)^2-\frac{1}{x}\frac{{\rm d}u}{{\rm…
Four 4-dimensional Painlev\'e-type equations are obtained by isomonodromic deformation of Fuchsian equations: they are the Garnier system in two variables, the Fuji-Suzuki system, the Sasano system, and the sixth matrix Painlev\'e system.…
In this article we show for the first time the role played by the hypergeneralized Heun equation (HHE) in the context of Quantum Field Theory in curved space-times. More precisely, we find suitable transformations relating the separated…
We study singularity confinement phenomena in examples of delay-differential Painlev\'e equations, which involve shifts and derivatives with respect to a single independent variable. We propose a geometric interpretation of our results in…
This is the third article in our series of articles exploring connections between dynamical systems of St\"ackel-type and of Painlev\'e-type. In this article we present a method of deforming of minimally quantized quasi-St\"ackel…
We construct a family of second-order linear difference equations parametrized by the hypergeometric solution of the elliptic Painlev\'e equation (or higher-order analogues), and admitting a large family of monodromy-preserving…
The first order nonlinear ODE \dot \phi(t) + \sin\phi(t)=q(t),q(t)=B+A\cos\omega t, where A,B,\omega are real constants, is considered, the transformation converting it to a second order linear homogeneous ODE with polynoimial coefficients…
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…
A complete group classification of a class of variable coefficient (1+1)-dimensional telegraph equations $f(x)u_{tt}=(H(u)u_x)_x+K(u)u_x$, is given, by using a compatibility method and additional equivalence transformations. A number of new…
It is shown that the Confluent Heun Equation (CHEq) reduces for certain conditions of the parameters to a particular class of Quasi-Exactly Solvable models, associated with the Lie algebra $sl (2,{\mathbb R})$. As a consequence it is…
We examine the power-series solutions and the series solutions in terms of the Hermite functions for the biconfluent Heun equation. Infinitely many cases for which a solution of the biconfluent equation is presented as an irreducible linear…
The well-known Heun equation has the form: Q(z)S''(z)+P(z)S'(z)+V(z)S(z)=0 where Q(z) is a cubic complex polynomial, P(z) and V(z) are polynomials of degrees at most 2 and 1 resp. One of the classical problems about the Heun equation is for…
We discuss the level-crossing field configurations for which the quantum time-dependent two-state problem is solvable in terms of the confluent Heun functions. We show that these configurations belong to fifteen four-parametric families of…
