Biorthogonal polynomials for two-matrix models with semiclassical potentials

We consider the biorthogonal polynomials associated to the two-matrix model where the eigenvalue distribution has potentials V"1,V"2 with arbitrary rational derivative and whose supports are constrained on an arbitrary union of intervals (hard-edges). We show that these polynomials satisfy certain recurrence relations with a number of terms d"i depending on the number of hard-edges and on the degree of the rational functions V"i^'. Using these relations we derive Christoffel-Darboux identities satisfied by the biorthogonal polynomials: this enables us to give explicit formulaefor the differential equation satisfied by d"i+1 consecutive polynomials, We also define certain integral transforms of the polynomials and use them to formulate a Riemann-Hilbert problem for (d"i+1)x(d"i+1) matrices constructed out of the polynomials and these transforms. Moreover, we prove that the Christoffel-Darboux pairing can be interpreted as a pairing between two dual Riemann-Hilbert problems.
