In this paper, we present a new method of deducing infinite sequences of exact solutions of q -discrete Painlevé equations by using their associated linear problems. The specific equation we consider in this paper is a q -discrete version of the second Painlevé equation ( q -P II ) with affine Weyl group symmetry of type ( A 2 + A 1 ) (1) . We show, for the first time, how to use the q -discrete linear problem associated with q -P II to find an infinite sequence of exact rational solutions and also show how to find their representation as determinants by using the linear problem. The method, while demonstrated for q -P II here, is also applicable to other discrete Painlevé equations.
