Abstract

We study the Hankel determinant of the generalized Jacobi weight (xt)γxα(1x)β(x-t)^{\gamma}x^\alpha(1-x)^\beta for x[0,1]x\in[0,1] with α,β>0\alpha, \beta>0, t<0t < 0 and γR\gamma\in\mathbb{R}. Based on the ladder operators for the corresponding monic orthogonal polynomials Pn(x)P_n(x), it is shown that the logarithmic derivative of Hankel determinant is characterized by a τ\tau-function for the Painlev\'e VI system.
