Special relations for continuous and discrete Painleve equations

We investigate a relation between solutions of the Painleve II equation cor responding to values of the parameter of P-II which cannot be connected thr ough a Schlesinger transformation, which was first derived by Gambler Here we present the discrete analogue of this relation, relating the discrete P- II to the alternate d-P-II. The latter turns out to be a consequence of a q uadratic relation existing between two different families of solutions of P -V. A q-discrete analogue of the latter relation is also presented.
