T1 Large z Asymptotics for Special Function Solutions of Painlevé II in the Complex Plane
A1 Deaño Cabrera, Alfredo
AB In this paper we obtain large z asymptotic expansions in the complex plane forthe tau function corresponding to special function solutions of the Painlevé II differentialequation. Using the fact that these tau functions can be written as n × n Wronskiandeterminants involving classical Airy functions, we use Heine's formula to rewrite them asn-fold integrals, which can be asymptotically approximated using the classical method ofsteepest descent in the complex plane.
