Author Tetsu Masuda

(Received February 10, 2003, revised May 12, 2004)
Abstract. We present a determinant expression for a family of classical transcendental solutions of the Painlevé V and the Painlevé VI equation. Degeneration of these solutions along the process of coalescence for the Painlevé equations is discussed.
