✦ Synopsis
We find a local (d + 1) × (d + 1) Riemann-Hilbert problem characterizing the skew-orthogonal polynomials associated to the partition function of orthogonal ensembles of random matrices with a potential function of degree d. Our Riemann-Hilbert problem is similar to a local d × d Riemann-Hilbert problem found by Kuijlaars and McLaughlin characterizing the bi-orthogonal polynomials. This gives more motivation for finding methods to compute asymptotics of high order Riemann-Hilbert problems, and brings us closer to finding full asymptotic expansions of the skew-orthogonal polynomials.

Angelesco systems of measures with Jacobi-type weights are considered. For such systems, strong asymptotics for the related multiple orthogonal polynomials are found as well as the Szegő-type functions. In the procedure, an approach from the Riemann-Hilbert problem plays a fundamental role.
## Abstract This paper concerns the existence of nontrivial solutions of the Riemann‐Hilbert problem with a continuous coefficient whose values belong to two rays in the complex plane. Our results extend those recently obtained by E. Shargorodsky and J. F. Toland [6]. (© 2004 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH
