On Airy solutions of P$_\mathrm{II}$ and the complex cubic ensemble of random matrices, II

Ahmad Barhoumi, Pavel Bleher, Alfredo Deaño, Maxim L. Yattselev

Abstract

We describe the pole-free regions of the one-parameter family of special solutions of P$_\mathrm{II}$, the second Painlevé equation, constructed from the Airy functions. This is achieved by exploiting the connection between these solutions and the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials that appear in the analysis of the ensemble of random matrices corresponding to the cubic potential.

Key Result

Theorem 3.2

Fix $N \geq 1$. Given $\lambda\in\overline\mathbb{C}$, it holds for each $n \in \mathbb{N}$ that where $q_n(z;\lambda)$ is a solution of P2 given by eq:q-1 and eq:backlund-forward, $p_n(z;\lambda)$ is the corresponding solution of P34, see ham_sys, while $\sigma_n(z;\lambda)$ is the corresponding solution of S2 determined by sigma1.
