Abstract: We study polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to the modified Laguerre weight $z^{-n+u}{e}^{-Nz}(z-1{)}^{2b}$ in the limit where $n,Noinfty$ with $N/no1$ and $u$ is a fixed number in $mathbbRsetminusmathbb{N}_0$. With the effect of the factor $(z-1{)}^{2b}$, the local parametrix near the critical point $z=1$ can be constructed in terms of $Psi$-functions associated with the Painleve IV equation. We show that the asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials can be described in terms of specified solution of the Painleve IV equation in the double scaling limit. Our method is based on the Deift/Zhou steepest decent analysis of the Riemann-Hilbert problem associated with orthogonal polynomials.
