Painlevé I limit conjecture for the rescaled tau-function near the critical surface
Painlevé I limit conjecture for the rescaled tau-function near the critical surface
The critical surface is parameterized by
with
Let be a point on this surface, and let be a unit vector based at lying in the region below the tangent plane of the critical surface. Define
Painlevé I limit conjecture. There exists a choice of constant and a polynomial such that, defining , considered as a differential in ,
where is the Painlevé I Hamiltonian. This asserts that a broad class of limits of the tau-function near the critical surface is governed by the Painlevé I Hamiltonian; the source provides no resolution status for this conjectural claim.
