We propose an $n$-dimensional analogue of elliptic difference Painlev\'e equation. Some Weyl group acts on a family of rational varieties obtained by successive blow-ups at $m$ points in $\mpp^n(\mc)$, and in many cases they include the…
Weyl groups are ubiquitous, and efficient algorithms for them -- especially for the exceptional algebras -- are clearly desirable. In this paper we provide several of these, addressing practical concerns arising naturally for instance in…
Three $q$-Painlev\'e type equations are derived through degenerations of the $q$-Painlev\'e equation with affine Weyl group symmetry of type $q$-$E_8^{(1)}$. The three $q$-Painlev\'e type equations are associated with different realizations…
We perform a detailed study on the integrability of the Benney-Lin and KdV-Kawahara equations by using the Lie symmetry analysis and the singularity analysis. We find that the equations under our consideration admit integrable…

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 ``Painlev\'e analysis'' is quite often perceived as a collection of tricks reserved to experts. The aim of this course is to demonstrate the contrary and to unveil the simplicity and the beauty of a subject which is in fact the theory…
We find and study four kinds of a 4-parameter family of four-dimensional coupled Painlev\'e III systems with affine Weyl group symmetry of types $B_4^{(1)}$, $D_4^{(1)}$ and $D_5^{(2)}$. We also show that these systems are equivalent by an…
