Abstract: |
By definition a system of ordinary differential equations has the Painleve property if every local solution extends to a global meromorphic one. The Schlesinger equations provide a method to deform a given Fuchsian connection into an isomonodromic family of Fuchsian connections. The main goal of my talk is to explain a remarkable theorem proved independently by Malgrange and Miwa that says that the Schlesinger equations have the Painleve property. If time permits, I will try to explain the applications to semi-simple Frobenius manifolds, which was my main motivation to study the theorem of Malgrange and Miwa. |
