Streszczenie
The first and the second Painlevé equations are explicitly Hamiltonian with time dependent Hamilton function. By a natural extension of the phase space one gets corresponding autonomous Hamiltonian systems in $\mathbb{C}^4$. We prove that the latter systems do not have any additional algebraic first integral. In the proof equations in variations with respect to a parameter are used.
