Bäcklund transformations for first and second Painlevé hierarchies.
In this paper we consider Bessel equations of the type , where A is an nn complex matrix and X(t) is an nm matrix for t > 0. Following the ideas of the scalar case we introduce the concept of a fundamental set of solutions for the above equation expressed in terms of the data dimension. This concept allows us to give an explicit closed form solution of initial and two-point boundary value problems related to the Bessel equation.
