In this paper, we first give a new interpretation of Jimbo's boundary condition for the generic Painlev\'e VI transcendents, as the shrinking phenomenon in long time behaviour of the Jimbo-Miwa-Mori-Sato equation with rank $n=3$. We then…
We formulate a geometric Riemann-Hilbert correspondence that applies to the derivation by Jimbo and Sakai of equation $q$-PVI from ``isomonodromy'' conditions. This is a step within work in progress towards the application of…
We introduce new times in the monodromy preserving equations. While the usual times related to the moduli of complex structures of Riemann curves such as coordinates of marked points, we consider the moduli of generalized complex structures…
The D7 degeneration of the Painleve-III equation has solutions that are rational functions of $x^{1/3}$ for certain parameter values. We apply the isomonodromy method to obtain a Riemann-Hilbert representation of these solutions. We…
A new class of isomonodromy equations will be introduced and shown to admit Kac-Moody Weyl group symmetries. This puts into a general context some results of Okamoto on the 4th, 5th and 6th Painleve equations, and shows where such Kac-Moody…
The Riemann-Hilbert approach for the equations ${\rm PIII(D_6)}$ and ${\rm PIII(D_7)}$ is studied in detail, involving moduli spaces for connections and monodromy data, Okamoto-Painlev\'e varieties, the Painlev\'e property, special…
We introduce and study isomonodromy transformations of the matrix linear difference equation Y(z+1)=A(z)Y(z) with polynomial (or rational) A(z). Our main result is a construction of an isomonodromy action of Z^{m(n+1)-1} on the space of…
In a previous work a random matrix average for the Laguerre unitary ensemble, generalising the generating function for the probability that an interval $ (0,s) $ at the hard edge contains $ k $ eigenvalues, was evaluated in terms of a…
The solvability in Sobolev spaces is proved for divergence form second order elliptic equations in the whole space, a half space, and a bounded Lipschitz domain. For equations in the whole space or a half space, the leading coefficients…
This is a sequel to papers by the last two authors making the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence and isomonodromy explicit. For the degenerate fifth Painlev\'e equation, the moduli spaces for connections and for monodromy are explicitly…
We consider the initial-boundary value problem for systems of quasilinear wave equations on domains of the form $[0,T] \times \Sigma$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact manifold with smooth boundaries $\partial\Sigma$. By using an appropriate…
The Painleve-IV equation has two families of rational solutions generated respectively by the generalized Hermite polynomials and the generalized Okamoto polynomials. We apply the isomonodromy method to represent all of these rational…
By an extension of Harnad's and Dubrovin's `duality' constructions, the general isomonodromy problem studied by Jimbo, Miwa, and Ueno is equivalent to one in which the linear system of differential equations has a regular singularity at the…
We prove regularity for a class of boundary value problems for first order elliptic systems, with boundary conditions determined by spectral decompositions, under coefficient differentiability conditions weaker than previously known. We…
We apply iteration schemes and perturbation methods to provide a complete solution of the boundary Yamabe problem with minimal boundary scenario, or equivalently, the existence of a real, positive, smooth solution of $ -\frac{4(n -1)}{n -…
In this paper, we study the isomonodromy deformation equations for the $n\times n$ system of first order meromorphic linear ordinary differential equations with two second order poles. We analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions at…
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…
It has been known since the beginning of this century that isomonodromic problems --- typically the Painlev\'e transcendents --- in a suitable asymptotic region look like a kind of ``modulation'' of isospectral problem. This connection…
We study the Jimbo-Miwa equation and two of its extended forms, as proposed by Wazwaz et al, using Lie's group approach. Interestingly, the travelling-wave solutions for all the three equations are similar. Moreover, we obtain certain new…
We study dynamics of solutions in the initial value space of the sixth Painlev\'e equation as the independent variable approaches zero. Our main results describe the repeller set, show that the number of poles and zeroes of general…
