Abstract: In this paper, we study the singularly perturbed Laguerre unitary ensemble frac{1}{Z_n} (det M)^alpha e^{- extrm{tr}, V_t(M)}dM, qquad alpha >0, with Vt(x)=x+t/x, xin(0,+infty) and t>0. Due to the effect of t/x for varying t, the eigenvalue correlation kernel has a new limit instead of the usual Bessel kernel at the hard edge 0. This limiting kernel involves psi-functions associated with a special solution to a new third-order nonlinear differential equation, which is then shown equivalent to a particular Painlev'e III equation. The transition of this limiting kernel to the Bessel and Airy kernels is also studied when the parameter t changes in a finite interval (0,d]. Our approach is based on Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems.
