Abstract: Fourth - order analogue to the second Painlev'{e} equation is studied. This equation has its origin in the modified Korteveg - de Vries equation of the fifth order when we look for its self - similar solution. All power and non - power expansions of the solutions for the fouth - order analogue to the second Painlev'{e} equation near points z=0 and z=infty are found by means of the power geometry method. The exponential additions to solutions of the equation studied are determined. Comparison of the expansions found with those of the six Painlev'{e} equations confirm the conjecture that the fourth - order analogue to the second Painlev'{e} equation defines new transcendental functions.


The equation \[ w_{zzzz} - 10w^2w_{zz} - 10ww_{z}^2 + 6w^5 - zw-\alpha =0 \] appears from the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation of the fifth-order when one looks for its self-similar solution. This equation has a number of properties similar to those of Painlevé equations. Namely, it possesses Bäcklund transformations, a Lax pair and so on. The authors suppose that the equation can be an origin of new transcendental functions as Painlevé equations are. To study this problem it is important to find all solutions asymptotics of the equation. The authors do this in the paper. All power and non-power asymptotics, power and exponential expansions for the solutions of the equation are calculated by means of power geometric methods [see \textit{A. D. Bruno}, Usp. Math. Nauk 59, 31--80 (2004; Zbl 1068.34054)].
