Shift operators of the Dotsenko-Fateev equation and its higher order versions

Abstract

We find shift operators for the Dotsenko-Fateev equation, which is a differential equation of order 3, and for the three Fuchsian differential equations of order 4, 5 and 6, respectively, which are connected with the Dotsenko-Fateev equation via addition and middle convolution. These shift operators are used to study reducible cases.
