  We introduce an unfolded moduli space of connections, which is an algebraic
relative moduli space of connections on complex smooth projective curves, whose
generic fiber is a moduli space of regular singular connections and whose
special fiber is a moduli space of unramified irregular singular connections.
On the moduli space of unramified irregular singular connections, there is a
subbundle of the tangent bundle defining the generalized isomonodromic
deformation produced by the Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno theory. On an analytic open subset
of the unfolded moduli space of connections, we construct a non-canonical lift
of this subbundle, which we call an unfolding of the unramified irregular
singular generalized isomonodromic deformation. Our construction of an
unfolding of the unramified irregular singular generalized isomonodromic
deformation is not compatible with the asymptotic property in the unfolding
theory established by Hurtubise, Lambert and Rousseau which gives unfolded
Stokes matrices for an unfolded linear differential equation in a general
framework.
