报告摘要：
Jimbo (1982) showed that the problem of relating the asymptotic behaviours of Painlevé VI transcendents at distinct critical points, the connection problem, reduces to a set of equations involving a cubic surface, the gamma function and trigonometric functions, under the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence. After revisiting this result, we will analyze the analog for q-Painlevé VI. In that case, we will see that the connection problem reduces to a set of equations involving a Segre surface, the q-gamma function and elliptic functions. Whilst this is certainly a reduction in complexity, the reduced problem is still very rich and gets to some deep questions about integrable difference equations that we will explore.
