Review text

The authors provide a proof of the meromorphic nature of solutions to the fifth Painlevé equation (after the change of independent variable \(z=e^t\) which removes the fixed singularity at \(z=0\)). This paper thus continues the previous work of these authors and \textit{N. Steinmetz} [J. Anal. Math. 79, 345-377 (1999; Zbl 0986.34074) and J. Anal. Math. 85, 323-337 (2001; Zbl 1015.34082) and \textit{N. Steinmetz}, J. Anal. Math. 82, 363-377 (2000; Zbl 0989.34073)]. The idea of the proof is essentially that of \textit{P. Painlevé} [Bull. Soc. Math. France 28, 206-261 (1900; JFM 31.0337.03)], namely to demonstrate that the largest open disk \(B(z_0,R)\) within which a local solution in a neighbourhood of \(z_0\) can be continued as a single-valued meromorphic function cannot have finite radius. The interested reader will also benefit from the related papers of \textit{N. Joshi} and \textit{M. D. Kruskal} [Stud. Appl. Math. 93, No.~3, 187-207 (1994; Zbl 0941.35509)] and \textit{K. Okamoto} and \textit{K. Takano} [Funkcial. Ekvacioj 44, 201-217 (2001)], this last being in fact a publication of part of the 1960 lecture notes of Hukuhara. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0980.00050].
