On the Critical Behavior, the Connection problem and the Elliptic representation of a Painleve VI equation (Spring 2001)

Abstract

We find a class of solutions of the sixth Painleve' equation appearing in the theory of WDVV equations. This class covers almost all the monodromy data associated to the equation, except one point in the space of the data. We find the critical behavior close to the critical points in terms of two parameters and solve the connection problem. We also study the critical behavior of Painleve' transcendents in the Elliptic representation.
