For the master Painlev\'e equation P6(u), we define a consistent method, adapted from the Weiss truncation for partial differential equations, which allows us to obtain the first degree birational transformation of Okamoto. Two new features…

A birational transformation is one which leaves invariant an ordinary differential equation, only changing its parameters. We first recall the consistent truncation which has allowed us to obtain the first degree birational transformation…

We will study special solutions of the fourth, fifth and sixth Painlev\'e equations with generic values of parameters whose linear monodromy can be calculated explicitly. We will show the relation between Umemura's classical solutions and…

For each of the forty-eight exceptional algebraic solutions $u(x)$ of the sixth equation of Painlev\'e, we build the algebraic curve $P(u,x)=0$ of a degree conjectured to be minimal, then we give an optimal parametric representation of it.…

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…

In a 1979 paper, K. Okamoto introduced the space of initial values for the six Painlev\'e equations and their associated Hamiltonian systems, showing that these define regular initial value problems at every point of an augmented phase…

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…

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 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…

In 1991, one of the authors showed the existence of quadratic transformations between the Painleve' VI equations with local monodromy differences $(1/2,a,b,\pm 1/2)$ and $(a,a,b,b)$. In the present paper we give concise forms of these…

We obtain convergent representations (as Borel summed transseries) for the five one-parameter families of truncated solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation with nonzero parameters, valid in half planes, for large independent variable. We…

The sixth Painlev\'e equation is a basic equation among the non-linear differential equations with three fixed singularities, corresponding to Gauss's hypergeometric differential equation among the linear differential equations. It is known…

A Miura chain is a (closed) sequence of differential (or difference) equations that are related by Miura or B\"acklund transformations. We describe such a chain for the sixth Painlev\'e equation (\pvi), containing, apart from \pvi itself, a…

After recalling some of the geometry of the sixth Painleve equation, we will describe how the Okamoto symmetries arise naturally from symmetries of Schlesinger's equations and summarise the classification of the Platonic Painleve six…

For the Painlev\'e 6 transcendents, we provide a unitary description of the critical behaviours, the connection formulae, their complete tabulation, and the asymptotic distribution of the poles close to a critical point.

For the first Painleve equation we establish an orbifold polynomial Hamiltonian structure on the fibration of Okamoto's spaces and show that this geometric structure uniquely recovers the original Painleve equation, thereby solving a…

We consider connection between the Painleve-6 equation and explicitly uniformizable orbifolds

The discrete Painlev\'e I equation (dP$\rm_I$) is an integrable difference equation which has the classical first Painlev\'e equation (P$\rm_I$) as a continuum limit. dP$\rm_I$ is believed to be integrable because it is the discrete…

Based on the works by Kajiwara, Noumi and Yamada, we propose a canonically quantized version of the rational Weyl group representation which originally arose as "symmetries" or the B\"acklund transformations in Painlev\'{e} equations. We…

An algebro-geometric setting for the study of the Painlev\'e VI equation is introduced. Hamiltonian form of the equation is realized on a twisted relative cotangent bundle to the universal elliptic curve with labelled points of order two.…
