We derive the underlying Bäcklund transformations, symmetry structure and requirements to satisfy Painlevé property.engBacklund transformationsCoalescencePainleve equationsSymmetriesCoalescence, deformation and Bäcklund symmetries of Painlevé IV and II equationsArtigo10.1088/1751-8121/abb7252-s2.0-85095420033
