Singular Instantons and Painlevé VI

We consider a two parameter family of instantons, which is studied in [Sadun L., Comm. Math. Phys. 163 (1994), 257-291], invariant under the irreducible action of ${\rm SU}_2$ on $S^4$, but which are not globally defined. We will see that these instantons produce solutions to a one parameter family of Painlevé VI equations ($\text{P}_{\text{VI}}$) and we will give an explicit expression of the map between instantons and solutions to $\text{P}_{\text{VI}}$. The solutions are algebraic only for that values of the parameters which correspond to the instantons that can be extended to all of $S^4$. This work is a generalization of [Muñiz Manasliski R., Contemp. Math., Vol. 434, Amer. Math. Soc., Providence, RI, 2007, 215-222] and [Muñiz Manasliski R., J. Geom. Phys. 59 (2009), 1036-1047, arXiv:1602.07221], where instantons without singularities are studied.

Isomonodromic deformations and SU2-invariant instantons on S4

Anti-self-dual (ASD) solutions to the Yang-Mills equation (or instantons) over an anti-self-dual four manifold, which are invariant under an appropriate action of a three dimensional Lie group, give rise, via twistor construction, to isomonodromic deformations of connections on C P 1 having four simple singularities. As is well known this kind of deformations is governed by the sixth Painlevé equation P vi (α, \b{eta}, γ, δ) . We work out the particular case of the SU 2 -action on S 4 , obtained from the irreducible representation on R 5 . In particular, we express the pa- rameters (α, \b{eta}, γ, δ) in terms of the instanton number. The present paper contains the proof of the result anounced in [16].
