Birational Weyl group actions and q-Painleve equations via mutation combinatorics in cluster algebras

A cluster algebra is an algebraic structure generated by operations of a quiver (a directed graph) called the mutations and their associated simple birational mappings. By using a graph-combinatorial approach, we present a systematic way to derive a tropical, i.e. subtraction-free birational, representation of Weyl groups from cluster algebras. Our results provide an extensive class of Weyl group actions, including previously known examples with algebro-geometric background, and hence are relevant to the q-Painleve equations and their higher-order extensions. Key ingredients of the argument are the combinatorial aspects of the reflection associated with a cycle subgraph in the quiver. We also study symplectic structures of the discrete dynamical systems thus obtained. The normal form of a skew-symmetric integer matrix allows us to choose Darboux coordinates while preserving the birationality.

Determinant structure for tau-function of holonomic deformation of linear differential equations

In our previous works, a relationship between Hermite's two approximation problems and Schlesinger transformations of linear differential equations has been clarified. In this paper, we study tau-functions associated with holonomic deformations of linear differential equations by using Hermite's two approximation problems. As a result, we present a determinant formula for the ratio of tau-functions (tau-quotient).

Hermite-Pade approximation, isomonodromic deformation and hypergeometric integral

We develop an underlying relationship between the theory of rational approximations and that of isomonodromic deformations. We show that a certain duality in Hermite's two approximation problems for functions leads to the Schlesinger transformations, i.e. transformations of a linear differential equation shifting its characteristic exponents by integers while keeping its monodromy invariant. Since approximants and remainders are described by block-Toeplitzs determinants, one can clearly understand the determinantal structure in isomonodromic deformations. We demonstrate our method in a certain family of Hamiltonian systems of isomonodromy type including the sixth Painleve equation and Garnier systems; particularly, we present their solutions written in terms of iterated hypergeometric integrals. An algorithm for constructing the Schlesinger transformations is also discussed through vector continued fractions.

On a fundamental system of solutions of a certain hypergeometric equation

We study the linear Pfaffian systems satisfied by a certain class of hypergeometric functions, which includes Gauß's ${}_2 F_{1}$, Thomae's ${}_L F_{L-1}$ and Appell-Lauricella's $F_D$. In particular, we present a fundamental system of solutions with a characteristic local behavior by means of Euler-type integral representations. We also discuss how they are related to the theory of isomonodromic deformations or Painlevé equations.

From KP/UC hierarchies to Painleve equations

We study the underlying relationship between Painleve equations and infinite-dimensional integrable systems, such as the KP and UC hierarchies. We show that a certain reduction of these hierarchies by requiring homogeneity and periodicity yields Painleve equations, including their higher order generalization. This result allows us to clearly understand various aspects of the equations, e.g., Lax formalism, Hirota bilinear relations for tau-functions, Weyl group symmetry, and algebraic solutions in terms of the character polynomials, i.e., the Schur function and the universal character.

UC hierarchy and monodromy preserving deformation

The UC hierarchy is an extension of the KP hierarchy, which possesses not only an infinite set of positive time evolutions but also that of negative ones. Through a similarity reduction we derive from the UC hierarchy a class of the Schlesinger systems including the Garnier system and the sixth Painleve equation, which describes the monodromy preserving deformations of Fuchsian linear differential equations with certain spectral types. We also present a unified formulation of the above Schlesinger systems as a canonical Hamiltonian system whose Hamiltonian functions are polynomials in the canonical variables.

Hypergeometric solution of a certain polynomial Hamiltonian system of isomonodromy type

In our previous work, a unified description as polynomial Hamiltonian systems was established for a broad class of the Schlesinger systems including the sixth Painleve equation and Garnier systems. The main purpose of this paper is to present particular solutions of this Hamiltonian system in terms of a certain generalization of Gauss' hypergeometric function. Key ingredients of the argument are the linear Pfaffian system derived from an integral representation of the hypergeometric function (with the aid of twisted de Rham theory) and Lax formalism of the Hamiltonian system.

Projective reduction of the discrete Painlevé system of type $(A_2+A_1)^{(1)}$

We consider the q-Painlevé III equation arising from the birational representation of the affine Weyl group of type $(A_2 + A_1)^{(1)}$. We study the reduction of the q-Painlevé III equation to the q-Painlevé II equation from the viewpoint of affine Weyl group symmetry. In particular, the mechanism of apparent inconsistency between the hypergeometric solutions to both equations is clarified by using factorization of difference operators and the $τ$ functions.

Ultradiscretization of a solvable two-dimensional chaotic map associated with the Hesse cubic curve

We present a solvable two-dimensional piecewise linear chaotic map which arises from the duplication map of a certain tropical cubic curve. Its general solution is constructed by means of the ultradiscrete theta function. We show that the map is derived by the ultradiscretization of the duplication map associated with the Hesse cubic curve. We also show that it is possible to obtain the nontrivial ultradiscrete limit of the solution in spite of a problem known as "the minus-sign problem."

On an integrable system of q-difference equations satisfied by the universal characters: its Lax formalism and an application to q-Painleve equations

The universal character is a generalization of the Schur function attached to a pair of partitions. We study an integrable system of q-difference equations satisfied by the universal characters, which is an extension of the q-KP hierarchy and is called the lattice q-UC hierarchy. We describe the lattice q-UC hierarchy as a compatibility condition of its associated linear system (Lax formalism) and explore an application to the q-Painleve equations via similarity reduction. In particular a higher-order analogue of the q-Painleve VI equation is presented.

Tropical representation of Weyl groups associated with certain rational varieties

Starting from certain rational varieties blown-up from (P^1)^N, we construct a tropical, i.e., subtraction-free birational, representation of Weyl groups as a group of pseudo isomorphisms of the varieties. Furthermore, we develop an algebro-geometric framework of tau-functions as defining functions of exceptional divisors on the varieties. In the case where the corresponding root system is of affine type, our construction yields a class of (higher order) q-difference Painleve equations and its algebraic degree grows quadratically.

Universal character and q-difference Painlevé equations with affine Weyl groups

The universal character is a polynomial attached to a pair of partitions and is a generalization of the Schur polynomial. In this paper, we introduce an integrable system of q-difference lattice equations satisfied by the universal character, and call it the lattice q-UC hierarchy. We regard it as generalizing both q-KP and q-UC hierarchies. Suitable similarity and periodic reductions of the hierarchy yield the q-difference Painleve equations of types $A_{2g+1}^{(1)}$ $(g \geq 1)$, $D_5^{(1)}$, and $E_6^{(1)}$. As its consequence, a class of algebraic solutions of the q-Painleve equations is rapidly obtained by means of the universal character. In particular, we demonstrate explicitly the reduction procedure for the case of type $E_6^{(1)}$, via the framework of tau-functions based on the geometry of certain rational surfaces.

A geometric approach to tau-functions of difference Painlevé equations

We present a unified description of birational representation of Weyl groups associated with T-shaped Dynkin diagrams, by using a particular configuration of points in the projective plane. A geometric formulation of tau-functions is given in terms of defining polynomials of certain curves. If the Dynkin diagram is of affine type ($E_6^{(1)}$, $E_7^{(1)}$ or $E_8^{(1)}$), our representation gives rise to the difference Painlevé equations.

Ultradiscretization of solvable one-dimensional chaotic maps

We consider the ultradiscretization of a solvable one-dimensional chaotic map which arises from the duplication formula of the elliptic functions. It is shown that ultradiscrete limit of the map and its solution yield the tent map and its solution simultaneously. A geometric interpretation of the dynamics of the tent map is given in terms of the tropical Jacobian of a certain tropical curve. Generalization to the maps corresponding to the $m$-th multiplication formula of the elliptic functions is also discussed.

Toda equation and special polynomials associated with the Garnier system

We prove that a certain sequence of tau functions of the Garnier system satisfies Toda equation. We construct a class of algebraic solutions of the system by the use of Toda equation; then show that the associated tau functions are expressed in terms of the universal character, which is a generalization of Schur polynomial attached to a pair of partitions.
