It is well known that the sixth Painlev\'e equation $\PVI$ admits a group of B\"acklund transformations which is isomorphic to the affine Weyl group of type $\mathrm{D}_4^{(1)}$. Although various aspects of this unexpectedly large symmetry…

Symmetries and solutions of the Painleve IV equation are presented in an alternative framework which provides the bridge between the Hamiltonian formalism and the symmetric Painleve IV equation. This approach originates from a method…
We present a geometric description, based on the affine Weyl group E_{6}^{(1)}, of two discrete analogues of the Painlev\'e VI equation, known as the asymmetric q-P_{V} and asymmetric d-P_{IV}. This approach allows us to describe in a…
We examine quantum extensions of the continuous Painlev\'e equations, expressed as systems of first-order differential equations for non-commuting objects. We focus on the Painlev\'e equations II, IV and V. From their auto-B\"acklund…
It is known that discrete Painlev\'e equations have symmetries of the affine Weyl groups. In this paper we propose a new representation of discrete Painlev\'e equations in which the symmetries become clearly visible. We know how to obtain…
A discretization of Painlev\'e VI equation was obtained by Jimbo and Sakai in 1996. There are two ways to quantize it: 1) use the affine Weyl group symmetry (of $D_5^{(1)}$) (Hasegawa, 2011), 2) Lax formalism i.e. monodromy preserving point…
We consider solutions of a discrete Painlev\'e equation arising from a construction of quantum minimal surfaces by Arnlind, Hoppe and Kontsevich, and in earlier work of Cornalba and Taylor on static membranes. While the discrete equation…
We propose quantum Painlev\'e systems of type $A_l^{(1)}$. These systems, for $l=1$ and $l\ge 2$, should be regarded as quantizations of the second Painlev\'e equation and the differential systems with the affine Weyl group symmetries of…
An overview is given on recent developments in the affine Weyl group approach to Painlev\'e equations and discrete Painlev\'e equations, based on the joint work with Y. Yamada and K. Kajiwara.
We show the relation of the non-stationary difference equation proposed by one of the authors and the quantized discrete Painlev\'e VI equation. The five-dimensional Seiberg-Witten curve associated with the difference equation has a…
We shall construct the quantized q-analogues of the birational Weyl group actions arising from nilpotent Poisson algebras, which are conceptual generalizations, proposed by Noumi and Yamada, of the B\"acklund transformations for Painlev\'e…
We derive the discrete Painlev\'e equations associated to the affine Weyl group E$_8^{(1)}$ that can be represented by an (in the QRT sense) "asymmetric" trihomographic system. The method used in this paper is based on singularity…
We find four kinds of six-parameter family of coupled Painlev\'e VI systems in dimension four with affine Weyl group symmetry of types $B_6^{(1)}$, $D_6^{(1)}$ and $D_7^{(2)}$. Each system is the first example which gave higher-order…
The Painlev\'e equations can be written as Hamiltonian systems with affine Weyl group symmetries. A canonical quantization of the Painlev\'e equations preserving the affine Weyl group symmetries has been studied. While, the Painlev\'e…
We present the discrete, q-, form of the Painlev\'e VI equation written as a three-point mapping and analyse the structure of its singularities. This discrete equation goes over to P_{VI} at the continuous limit and degenerates towards the…
In this paper discrete equations are derived from B\"{a}cklund transformations of the fifth Painlev\'{e} equation, including a new discrete equation which has ternary symmetry. There are two classes of rational solutions of the fifth…
We present an new system of ordinary differential equations with affine Weyl group symmetry of type E_6^{(1)}. This system is expressed as a Hamiltonian system of sixth order with a coupled Painleve VI Hamiltonian.
We construct a general quantization procedure for square integrable functions on well-behaved connected exponential Lie groups. The Lie groups in question should admit at least one co-adjoint orbit of maximal possible dimension. The…
In the current paper we study auto-B\"acklund transformations of the non-stationary second Painlev\'e hierarchy $\text{P}_\text{II}^{(n)}$ depending on $n$ parameters: a parameter $\alpha_n$ and times $t_1, \dots, t_{n-1}$. Using generators…
