We use the methods of group theory to reduce the equations of motion of the $CP^{1}$ model in (2+1) dimensions to sets of two coupled ordinary differential equations. We decouple and solve many of these equations in terms of elementary…
We consider the symmetric q-Painlev\'e equations derived from the birational representation of affine Weyl groups by applying the projective reduction and construct the hypergeometric solutions. Moreover, we discuss continuous limits of the…
It is well-known that differential Painlev\'e equations can be written in a Hamiltonian form. However, a coordinate form of such representation is far from unique -- there are many very different Hamiltonians that result in the same…
Discrete Painlev\'e equations are integrable two-dimensional birational maps associated to a family of generalized Halphen surfaces. The latter can be seen either as $\mathbb P^2$ blown up at nine points or as $\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1$…
In this article, we study birational transformations belonging to Galois points for certain plane quartic curve. In fact, we see that they can be extended to Cremona transformations. In particular, we determine the conjugacy class of them.…
A Cremona transformation is a birational self-map of the projective space $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $. Cremona transformations of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ form a group and this group has a rational action on subvarieties of $ \mathbb{P}^{n} $ and hence on…
The Lam\'e function can be used to construct plane wave factors and solutions to the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy. The solutions are usually called elliptic solitons. In this chapter, first, we review…
In this note we consider questions about parametrisations of elliptic curves defined over number fields by quotients of the upper half-plane by finite index subgroups of SL_2(Z). We ask if we can choose such a parametrisation of an elliptic…
A series of systems of nonlinear equations with affine Weyl group symmetry of type $A^{(1)}_l$ is studied. This series gives a generalization of Painlev\'e equations $P_{IV}$ and $P_{V}$ to higher orders.
We find a general framework for the construction of birational involutions on two- and three-dimensional varieties obtained from $\mathbb P^2$, $\mathbb P^1\times \mathbb P^1$, and $\mathbb P^3$ by blow-up at nine, respectively eight…
This paper connects the quadrirational Yang-Baxter maps, which are two-dimensional integrable discrete systems of KdV type, and the elliptic Cremona system, which is a higher analogue of discrete Painlev\'e equations associated with…
Four types of discrete transforms of Weyl orbit functions on the finite point sets are developed. The point sets are formed by intersections of the dual-root lattices with the fundamental domains of the affine Weyl groups. The finite sets…
This article studies the group generated by automorphisms of the projective space of dimension $n$ and by the standard birational involution of degree $n$. Every element of this group only contracts rational hypersurfaces, but in odd…
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.
A geometric charactrization of the equation found by Hietarinta and Viallet, which satisfies the singularity confinement criterion but which exhibits chaotic behavior, is presented. It is shown that this equation can be lifted to an…
Structure and properties of families of critical points for classes of functions $W(z,\bar{z})$ obeying the elliptic Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation $E(1/2,1/2)$ are studied. General variational and differential equations governing the…

A new class of representations of affine Weyl groups on rational functions are constructed, in order to formulate discrete dynamical systems associated with affine root systems. As an application, some examples of difference and…

We study linearizability properties of finite subgroups of the Cremona group ${\mathrm{Cr}}_n(k)$ in the case where $k$ is a global field, with the focus on the local-global principle. For every global field $k$ of characteristic different…
