Abstract: We show that four exceptional Fuchsian equations, each determined by the four parabolic singularities, known as the Chudnovsky equations, are transformed into each other by algebraic transformations. We describe equivalence of these equations and their counterparts on tori. The latter are the Fuchsian equations on elliptic curves and their equivalence is characterized by transcendental transformations which are represented explicitly in terms of elliptic and theta functions.

Review text

Four Fuchsian equations are considered: \[ \begin{aligned} x(x-1)(x+1){\Psi }+(3{{x}^{2}}-1){\Psi }'+x\Psi &=0,\\ x({{x}^{2}}+3x+3){\Psi }+(3{{x}^{2}}+6x+3){\Psi }'+(x+1)\Psi &=0,\\ x(x-1)(x+8){\Psi }+(3{{x}^{2}}+14x-8){\Psi }'+(x+2)\Psi &=0, \\ x({{x}^{2}}+11x-1){\Psi }+(3{{x}^{2}}+22x-1){\Psi }'+(x+3)\Psi &=0.\end{aligned} \] It is noted that these equations are the only linear ordinary differential equations of the class \[ p{\Psi }+{p}'{\Psi }'+(x+A)\Psi =0,\;p:=x(x+\alpha )(x+\beta ), \] whose solutions can be represented in terms of known special functions. The author shows that any of these equations can be received from other equation by means of an algebraic change of variables. All algebraic relations for the variables are presented in an explicit form.
