Abstract
It is well known that rational solutions of the second Painlevé equation (PII) are expressed in terms of logarithmic derivatives of the Yablonskii–Vorob'ev polynomials Qn(z) which are defined through a second order, bilinear differential-difference equation which is equivalent to the Toda equation. In this Letter, using the Hamiltonian theory for PII, it is shown that Qn(z) also satisfies a fourth order, bilinear ordinary differential equation and a fifth order, quad-linear difference equation. Further, rational solutions of some ordinary differential equations which are solvable in terms of solutions of PII are also expressed in terms of the Yablonskii–Vorob'ev polynomials.
