We will consider three a priori different types of special functions : (i) tau functions of Painlevé equations (ii) accessory parameters in linear differential equations of Heun’s type and (iii) conformal blocks of the Virasoro algebra. I wil discuss surprising (and for the most part conjectural) relations between these functions coming from the 2D conformal field theory.
