Recently, a quantum version of Painleve equations from the point of view of their symmetries was proposed by H. Nagoya. These quantum Painleve equations can be written as Hamiltonian systems with a (noncommutative) polynomial Hamiltonian. We give a characterization of the quantum Painleve equations by certain holomorphic properties. Namely, we introduce canonical transformations such that the Painleve Hamiltonian system is again transformed into a polynomial Hamiltonian system, and we show that the Hamiltonian can be uniquely characterized through this holomorphic property.
We consider Schrödinger equations for the quantum Painlevé equations. We present hypergeometric solutions of the Schrödinger equations for the quantum Painlevé equations, as particular solutions. We also give a representation theoretic correspondence between Hamiltonians of the Schrödinger equations for the quantum Painlevé equations and those of the KZ equation or the confluent KZ equations.
It is demonstrated that a certain integral equation can be solved using the Painleve equation of third kind. Inversely, a special solution of this Painleve equation can be expressed as the ratio of two infinite series of spheroidal functions with known coefficients.
The construction and role of symmetries for difference equations are now well known. In this paper, the symmetry analysis of the discrete Painleve equations is considered. We assume that the characteristics depend on $n$ and $u_n$ only and we obtain a number of symmetries. These symmetries are used to construct exact solutions in some cases.
We present a new approach to determine the rational solutions of the higher order Painleve equations associated to periodic dressing chain systems. We obtain new sets of solutions, giving determinantal representations indexed by specific Maya diagrams in the odd case or universal characters in the even case.
We show that difference Painleve equations can be interpreted as isomorphisms of moduli spaces of d-connections on the projective line with given singularity structure. We also derive a new difference equation. It is the most general difference Painleve equation known so far, and it degenerates to both difference Painleve V and classical (differential) Painleve VI equations.
We study a Hamiltonian system without the Painlevé property and show that it admits a kind of regularisation on a bundle of rational surfaces with certain divisors removed, generalising Okamoto's spaces of initial conditions for the Painlevé differential equations. The system in question was obtained by Takasaki as part of the Painlevé-Calogero correspondence and possesses the algebro-Painlevé property, being related by an algebraic transformation to the fourth Painlevé equation. We provide an atlas for the bundle of surfaces in which the system has a global Hamiltonian structure, with all Ham…
We consider the isomonodromic formulation of the Calogero-Painlevé multi-particle systems and proceed to their canonical quantization. We then proceed to the quantum Hamiltonian reduction on a special representation to radial variables, in analogy with the classical case and also with the theory of quantum Calogero equations. This quantized version is compared to the generalization of a result of Nagoya on integral representations of certain solutions of the quantum Painlevé equations. We also provide multi-particle generalizations of these integral representations.
For an arbitrary ordinary second order differential equation a test is constructed that checks if this equation is equivalent to Painleve I, II or Painleve III with three zero parameters equations under the substitutions of variables. If it is true then in case the Painleve equations I and II an explicite change of variables is given that is written using the differential invariants of the equation.
We express discrete Painlevé equations as discrete Hamiltonian systems. The discrete Hamiltonian systems here mean the canonical transformations defined by generating functions. Our construction relies on the classification of the discrete Painlevé equations based on the surface-type. The discrete Hamiltonians we obtain are written in the logarithm and dilogarithm functions.
We introduce a simultaneous ultradiscrete Painleve II equation with parity variables, which is shown to be more suitable for studying two-parameter solutions than the single second-order ultradiscrete Painleve II equation with parity variables. We investigate several types of two-parameter solutions and the solutions which are related with the ultradiscrete limit of determinant type solutions of q-Painleve II equation.
We classify the SU(2)-invariant anti-self-dual metrics with a signature (+,+,-,-). The metrics are specified by a solution of Painleve VI, V, III or II. Moreover we show the geometric meaning of the metrics specified by each type of Painlevé functions.
We show that \a < 0, \b > 0, \g=\d=0 Painleve III equation arises as a zero-curvature condition in the Belinskii-Zakharov inverse-scattering formulation for Bianchi cosmological models. For special values of the parameters this Painleve III equation becomes the dynamical equation for Bianchi I, II, VI_0 and VII_0 models.
The Painlevé equations can be written as Hamiltonian systems with affine Weyl group symmetries. A canonical quantization of the Painlevé equations preserving the affine Weyl group symmetries has been studied. While, the Painlevé equations are isomonodromic equations for certain second-order linear differential equations. In this paper, we introduce a canonical quantization of Lax equations for the Painlevé equations and construct symmetries of the quantum Lax equations. We also show that our quantum Lax equations are derived from Virasoro conformal field theory.
Higher order Painleve equations invariant under extended affine Weyl groups $A^{(1)}_n$ are obtained through self-similarity limit of a class of pseudo-differential Lax hierarchies with symmetry inherited from the underlying generalized Volterra lattice structure.
In this paper we consider a Hankel determinant formula for generic solutions of the Painleve' II equation. We show that the generating functions for the entries of the Hankel determinants are related to the asymptotic solution at infinity of the linear problem of which the Painleve' II equation describes the isomonodromic deformations.
We examine the reduced phase space of the Bianchi VII_0 cosmological model, including the moduli sector. We show that the dynamics of the relevant sector of local degrees of freedom is given by a Painleve III equation. We then obtain a zero-curvature representation of this Painleve III equation by applying the Belinskii-Zakharov method to the Bianchi VII_0 model.
Folding transformation of the Painlevé 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 Painlevé equations. These transformations are in correspondence with automorphisms of affine Dynkin diagrams. We give a complete classification of folding transformations of the $q$-difference Painlevé equations, these transformations are in correspondence with certain subdiagrams of the affine Dynkin diagrams (possibly with automorphism). The method is based on Sa…
The q-difference Painleve II equation admits special solutions written in terms of determinant whose entries are the general solution of the q-Airy equation. An ultradiscrete limit of the special solutions is studied by the procedure of ultradiscretization with parity varialbes. Then we obtain new Airy-type solutions of the ultradiscrete Painleve II equation with parity variables, and the solutions have richer structure than the known solutions.
We present an asymmetric $q$-Painlevé equation. We will derive this using $q$-orthogonal polynomials with respect to generalized Freud weights: their recurrence coefficients will obey this $q$-Painlevé equation (up to a simple transformation). We will show a stable method of computing a special solution which gives the recurrence coefficients. We establish a connection with $α-q-P_V$.
In this paper we study different Hamiltonian systems with polynomial and rational Hamiltonians associated with the generic third Painlevé equation and present explicit birational transformations relating them.
A new three-dimensional second-order nonlinear wave equation is introduced which passes the Painleve test for integrability and possesses KdV-type multisoliton solutions. Lax integrability of this equation remains unknown.
It is known that the Painleve VI is obtained by connection preserving deformation of some linear differential equations, and the Heun equation is obtained by a specialization of the linear differential equations. We inverstigate degenerations of the Ruijsenaars-van Diejen difference opearators and show difference analogues of the Painleve-Heun correspondence.
Gamayun, Iorgov and Lisovyy in 2012 proposed that tau function of the Painlevé equation is equal to the series of $c=1$ Virasoro conformal blocks. We study similar series of $c=-2$ conformal blocks and relate it to Painlevé theory. The arguments are based on Nakajima-Yoshioka blowup relations on Nekrasov partition functions. We also study series of $q$-deformed $c=-2$ conformal blocks and relate it to $q$-Painlevé equation. As an application, we prove formula for the tau function of $q$-Painlevé $A_7^{(1)'}$ equation.
The 8-parameter elliptic Sakai difference Painlevé equation admits a Lax formulation. We show that a suitable specialization of the Lax equation gives rise to the time-independent Schrödinger equation for the $BC_1$ 8-parameter 'relativistic' Calogero-Moser Hamiltonian due to van Diejen. This amounts to a generalization of previous results concerning the Painlevé-Calogero correspondence to the highest level in the two hierarchies.
Recently we studied Padé interpolation problems of $q$-grid, related to $q$-Painlevé equations of type $E_7^{(1)}$, $E_6^{(1)}$, $D_5^{(1)}$, $A_4^{(1)}$ and $(A_2+A_1)^{(1)}$. By solving those problems, we could derive evolution equations, scalar Lax pairs and determinant formulae of special solutions for the corresponding $q$-Painlevé equations. It is natural that the $q$-Painlevé equations were derived by the interpolation method of $q$-grid, but it may be interesting in terms of differential grid that the Padé interpolation method of differential grid (i.e. Padé approximation method) has b…
An explicit form of the Lax pair for the q-difference Painleve equation with affine Weyl group symmetry of type E^{(1)}_8 is obtained. Its degeneration to E^{(1)}_7, E^{(1)}_6 and D^{(1)}_5 cases are also given.
We prove that one system of coupled KdV equations, claimed by Hirota, Hu, and Tang to pass the Painleve test for integrability, actually fails the test at the highest resonance of the generic branch and therefore must be non-integrable.
We present a class of three-dimensional integrable structures associated with the Darboux-Egoroff metric and classical Euler equations of free rotations of a rigid body. They are obtained as canonical structures of rational Landau-Ginzburg potentials and provide solutions to the Painleve VI equation.
We describe all finite orbits of an action of the extended modular group $\barΛ$ on conjugacy classes of SL(2,C)-triples. The result is used to classify all algebraic solutions of the general Painleve VI equation up to parameter equivalence.
We construct a solution of an analog of the Schrödinger equation for the Hamiltonian $ H_I (z, t, q_1, q_2, p_1, p_2) $ corresponding to the second equation $P_1^2$ in the Painleve I hierarchy. This solution is produced by an explicit change of variables from a solution of the linear equations whose compatibility condition is the ordinary differential equation $P_1^2$ with respect to $z$. This solution also satisfies an analog of the Schrödinger equation corresponding to the Hamiltonian $ H_{II} (z, t, q_1, q_2, p_1, p_2) $ of Hamiltonian system with respect to $t$ which is compatible with $P_…
