Modern trends in constructive function theory Constructive Functions 2014, Conference in Honor of Ed Saff's 70th Birthday, May 26-30, 2014, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee

This volume contains the proceedings of the conference Constructive Functions 2014, held from May 26-30, 2014, at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN, in honor of Ed Saff's 70th birthday. The papers in this volume contain results on polynomial approximation, rational approximation, Log-optimal configurations on the sphere, random continued fractions, ratio asymptotics for multiple orthogonal polynomials, the bivariate trigonometric moment problem, minimal Riesz energy, random polynomials, Pade and Hermite-Pade approximation, orthogonal expansions, hyperbolic differential equations, Bergman polynomials, the Meijer $G$-function, polynomial ensembles, and integer lattice points This volume contains the proceedings of the conference Constructive Functions 2014, held from May 26–30, 2014, at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN, in honor of Ed Saff's 70th birthday.
