Abstract: We study orthogonal polynomials and Hankel determinants generated by a symmetric semi-classical Jacobi weight. By using the ladder operator technique, we derive the second-order nonlinear difference equations satisfied by the recurrence coefficient and the sub-leading coefficient mathrmp(n,t) of the monic orthogonal polynomials. This enables us to obtain the large n asymptotics of and mathrmp(n,t) based on the result of Kuijlaars et al. [Adv. Math. extbf{188} (2004) 337-398]. In addition, we show the second-order differential equation satisfied by the orthogonal polynomials, with all the coefficients expressed in terms of . From the t evolution of the auxiliary quantities, we prove that satisfies a second-order differential equation and satisfies a particular Painlev'{e} V equation under a simple transformation. Furthermore, we show that the logarithmic derivative of the associated Hankel determinant satisfies both the second-order differential and difference equations. The large n asymptotics of the Hankel determinant is derived from its integral representation in terms of and mathrmp(n,t).
