Title: Heisenberg-Weyl interpretations of series expansions of Heun equations

Abstract:

It is well-known from the Jimbo-Miwa’s studies of isomodromy deformation of Heun's equations would give rise to Painleve equations as compatibility conditions. This talk focuses on interpretation of various kinds of infinite series expansions of biconfluent Heun equations from a Weyl-algebraic viewpoint and connection to Painleve IV equations.
