Introduction of Research

The exact WKB analysis is a powerful method in studying both linear and non-linear differential equations which contain a large parameter in an appropriate way. Recently, the exact WKB analysis for higher order Painleve equations with a large parameter has been developed. My research interest is to investigate the Stokes geometries and the structure of instanton type solutions so that the Stokes phenomena for solutions of higher order Painleve equations are correctly caught. Moreover, I study holonomic D-modules associated with non-isolated hypersurface singularities in the context of algebraic analysis.
