We study a sequence of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a one parameter family of weights $$ w(x):=w(x,t)=\rex^{-t/x}\:x^{\al}(1-x)^{\bt},\quad t\geq 0, $$ defined for $x\in[0,1].$ If $t=0,$ this reduces to a shifted Jacobi weight.…
In this paper, we focus on the relationship between the d-P$\left(A_{3}^{(1)}/D_{5}^{(1)}\right)$ equations and a time-evolved Jacobi weight, $w(x)=x^{\alpha}(1-x)^{\beta}\mathrm{e}^{-sx}$, $x\in[0,1]$, $\alpha,\beta > -1$, $s>0$. From the…
In this paper we study the simplest deformation on a sequence of orthogonal polynomials, namely, replacing the original (or reference) weight $w_0(x)$ defined on an interval by $w_0(x)e^{-tx}.$ It is a well-known fact that under such a…
We revisit the ladder operators for orthogonal polynomials and re-interpret two supplementary conditions as compatibility conditions of two linear over-determined systems; one involves the variation of the polynomials with respect to the…
The six Painlev\'e transcendants which originally appeared in the studies of ordinary differential equations have been found numerous applications in physical problems. The well-known examples among which include symmetry reduction of the…
We consider the Hankel determinant generated by the moments of the even weight function ${\rm e}^{-x^2}(A+B\theta(x^2-a^2)), x\in(-\infty,+\infty), a>0, A\ge0, A+B\ge0$. It is intimately related to the gap probability of the Gaussian…
We study the recurrence coefficients of the orthogonal polynomials with respect to a semi-classical extension of the Krawtchouk weight. We derive a coupled discrete system for these coefficients and show that they satisfy the fifth…
In this paper we study the characteristic or generating function of a certain discontinuous linear statistics of the Laguerre unitary ensembles and show that this is a particular fifth Painl\'eve transcendant in the variable $t,$ the…
In this paper, we study the Hankel determinant associated with the degenerate Laguerre unitary ensemble. This problem originates from the largest or smallest eigenvalue distribution of the degenerate Laguerre unitary ensemble. We derive the…
We consider the symmetric gap probability distributions of certain Freud unitary ensembles. This problem is related to the Hankel determinants generated by the Freud weights supported on the complement of a symmetric interval. By using Chen…
Over the last decade it has become clear that discrete Painlev\'e equations appear in a wide range of important mathematical and physical problems. Thus, the question of recognizing a given non-autonomous recurrence as a discrete Painlev\'e…
We study the Jacobi unitary ensemble perturbed by an algebraic singularity at $t>1$. For fixed $t$, this is the modified Jacobi ensemble studied by Kuijlaars {\it{et al.}} The main focus here, however, is the case when the algebraic…
Recurrence coefficients of semi-classical orthogonal polynomials (orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function $w$ such that $w'/w$ is a rational function) are shown to be solutions of non linear differential equations with respect…
In a recent work difference equations (Laguerre-Freud equations) for the bi-orthogonal polynomials and related quantities corresponding to the weight on the unit circle $ w(z)=\prod^m_{j=1}(z-z_j(t))^{\rho_j} $ were derived.Here it is shown…
The eigenvalue correlations of random matrices from the Jacobi Unitary Ensemble have a known asymptotic behavior as their size tends to infinity. In the bulk of the spectrum the behavior is described in terms of the sine kernel, and at the…
In this paper, we study the gap probability problem of the (symmetric) Jacobi unitary ensemble of Hermitian random matrices, namely the probability that the interval $(-a,a)\:(0<a<1)$ is free of eigenvalues. Using the ladder operator…
We study the Hankel determinant generated by the Gaussian weight with jump discontinuities at $t_1,\cdots,t_m$. By making use of a pair of ladder operators satisfied by the associated monic orthogonal polynomials and three supplementary…
We present two complementary methods, each applicable in a different range, to evaluate the distribution of the lowest eigenvalue of random matrices in a Jacobi ensemble. The first method solves an associated Painleve VI nonlinear…
We study the dependence of recurrence coefficients in the three-term recurrence relation for orthogonal polynomials with a certain deformation of the $q$-Laguerre weight on the degree parameter $n$. We show that this dependence is described…
The Painlev\'e equations possess transcendental solutions $y(t)$ with special initial values that are symmetric under rotation or reflection in the complex $t$-plane. They correspond to monodromy problems that are explicitly solvable in…
