Abstract

We consider the determinantal point process with the confluent hypergeometric kernel. This process is a universal point process in random matrix theory and describes the distribution of eigenvalues of large random Hermitian matrices near the Fisher-Hartwig singularity. Applying the Riemann-Hilbert method, we study the generating function of this process on any given number of intervals. It can be expressed as the Fredholm determinant of the confluent hypergeometric kernel with n discontinuities. In this paper, we derive an integral representation for the determinant by using the Hamiltonian of the coupled Painlevé V system. By evaluating the total integral of the Hamiltonian, we obtain the asymptotics of the determinant as the n discontinuities tend to infinity up to and including the constant term. Here the constant term is expressed in terms of the Barnes G-function.
