Hypergeometric Solutions of the $A_4^{(1)}$-Surface $q$-Painlevé IV Equation (1301.2401v6)

Abstract: We consider a $q$-Painlev\'e IV equation which is the $A_4^{(1)}$-surface type in the Sakai's classification. We find three distinct types of classical solutions with determinantal structures whose elements are basic hypergeometric functions. Two of them are expressed by ${}_2\varphi_1$ basic hypergeometric series and the other is given by ${}_2\psi_2$ bilateral basic hypergeometric series.
