The Chazy XII Equation and Schwarz Triangle Functions

Dubrovin [Lecture Notes in Math., Vol. 1620, Springer, Berlin, 1996, 120-348] showed that the Chazy XII equation $y'''- 2yy''+3y'^2 = K(6y'-y^2)^2$, $K \in \mathbb{C}$, is equivalent to a projective-invariant equation for an affine connection on a one-dimensional complex manifold with projective structure. By exploiting this geometric connection it is shown that the Chazy XII solution, for certain values of $K$, can be expressed as $y=a_1w_1+a_2w_2+a_3w_3$ where $w_i$ solve the generalized Darboux-Halphen system. This relationship holds only for certain values of the coefficients $(a_1,a_2,a_3)$ and the Darboux-Halphen parameters $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$, which are enumerated in Table 2. Consequently, the Chazy XII solution $y(z)$ is parametrized by a particular class of Schwarz triangle functions $S(\alpha, \beta, \gamma; z)$ which are used to represent the solutions $w_i$ of the Darboux-Halphen system. The paper only considers the case where $\alpha+\beta+\gamma<1$. The associated triangle functions are related among themselves via rational maps that are derived from the classical algebraic transformations of hypergeometric functions. The Chazy XII equation is also shown to be equivalent to a Ramanujan-type differential system for a triple $(\hat{P}, \hat{Q},\hat{R})$

On a reduction of the generalized Darboux-Halphen system

The equations for the general Darboux-Halphen system obtained as a reduction of the self-dual Yang-Mills can be transformed to a third-order system which resembles the classical Darboux-Halphen system with a common additive terms. It is shown that the transformed system can be further reduced to a constrained non-autonomous, non-homogeneous dynamical system. This dynamical system becomes homogeneous for the classical Darboux-Halphen case, and was studied in the context of self-dual Einstein's equations for Bianchi IX metrics. A Lax pair and Hamiltonian for this reduced system is derived and the solutions for the system are prescribed in terms of hypergeometric functions.Comment: Some content of this article overlaps with content of another article written previously by two of the authors: arXiv:1606.02910.

Classification of the line-soliton solutions of KPII

In the previous papers (notably, Y. Kodama, J. Phys. A 37, 11169-11190 (2004), and G. Biondini and S. Chakravarty, J. Math. Phys. 47 033514 (2006)), we found a large variety of line-soliton solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili II (KPII) equation. The line-soliton solutions are solitary waves which decay exponentially in $(x,y)$-plane except along certain rays. In this paper, we show that those solutions are classified by asymptotic information of the solution as $|y| \to \infty$. Our study then unravels some interesting relations between the line-soliton classification scheme and classical results in the theory of permutations.Comment: 30 page
