TL;DR
This paper explores rational solutions of the fifth Painlevé equation using generalized Laguerre polynomials, analyzing their properties, root structures, and applications, and establishing connections with partitions and discriminants.
Contribution
It introduces new classes of rational solutions expressed via generalized Laguerre polynomials and investigates their properties, root structures, and associated equations.
Findings

Abstract
In this paper rational solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation are discussed. There are two classes of rational solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation, one expressed in terms of the generalised Laguerre polynomials, which are the main subject of this paper, and the other in terms of the generalised Umemura polynomials. Both the generalised Laguerre polynomials and the generalised Umemura polynomials can be expressed as Wronskians of Laguerre polynomials specified in terms of specific families of partitions. The properties of the generalised Laguerre polynomials are determined and various differential-difference and discrete equations found. The rational solutions of the fifth Painlev\'e equation, the associated -equation and the symmetric fifth Painlev\'e system are expressed in terms of generalised Laguerre polynomials. Non-uniqueness of the solutions in special cases is…
