On special solutions of second and fourth Painlevé hierarchies

In this Letter, we give special solutions of second and fourth Painleve hierarchies derived by Gordoa, Joshi, and Pickering. We show that for certain choice of the parameters each nth member of these hierarchies has a special solution in terms of an nth order differential equation. Furthermore we derive a relation between these two hierarchies.
