Determinant Structure of the Rational Solutions for the Painlevé IV Equation
Abstract
Rational solutions for the Painlevé IV equation are investigated by Hirota bilinear formalism. It is shown that the solutions in one hierarchy are expressed by 3-reduced Schur functions, and those in another two hierarchies by Casorati determinant of the Hermite polynomials, or by special case of the Schur polynomials.
