A $q$-deformation of the middle convolution was introduced by Sakai and Yamaguchi. We apply it to a linear $q$-difference equation associated with the $q$-Painlev\'e VI equation. Then we obtain integral transformations. We investigate the…
The present paper solves completely the problem of the group classification of nonlinear heat-conductivity equations of the form\ $u_{t}=F(t,x,u,u_{x})u_{xx} + G(t,x,u,u_{x})$. We have proved, in particular, that the above class contains no…

We study the linear problems in $z,t$ (time) associated to the Painlev\'e III$_3$ and III$_1$ equations when the Painlev\'e solution $q(t)$ approaches a pole or a zero. In this limit the problem in $z$ for the Painlev\'e III$_3$ reduces to…

Time independent Hamiltonians of the physical type H = (P_1^2+P_2^2)/2+V(Q_1,Q_2) pass the Painleve' test for only seven potentials $V$, known as the He'non-Heiles Hamiltonians, each depending on a finite number of free constants. Proving…
Two-component hyperbolic system of equations generated by ordinary differential Painlev\'e I \[ u_{yy}=6u^2+y \] and Painlev\'e III \[ yuu_{yy}=yu^2_{y}-uu_y+\delta y+\beta u+\alpha u^3 +\gamma yu^4 \] equations are considered, where…
We show that the local equivalence problem for second-order ordinary differential equations under point transformations is completely characterized by differential invariants of order at most 10 and that this upper bound is sharp. We also…
In this paper, we study the second member of the second Painlev\'e hierarchy $P_{II}^{(2)}$. We show that the birational transformations take this equation to the polynomial Hamiltonian system in dimension four, and this Hamiltonian system…
A high order linear $q$-difference equation with polynomial coefficients having $q$-Hahn multiple orthogonal polynomials as eigenfunctions is given. The order of the equation is related to the number of orthogonality conditions that these…
