Orthogonal polynomials and special functions Leuven 2002 ; [notes for the lectures of the summer school in Belgium 2002, which took place from August 12 - 16, 2002, at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium

The Set Of Lectures From The Summer School Held In Leuven In 2002 Provide An Up-to-date Account Of Recent Developments In Orthogonal Polynomials And Special Functions, In Particular For Algorithms For Computer Algebra Packages, 3nj-symbols In Representation Theory Of Lie Groups, Enumeration, Multivariable Special Functions And Dunkl Operators, Asymptotics Via The Riemann-hilbert Method, Exponential Asymptotics And The Stokes Phenomenon. The Volume Aims At Graduate Students And Post-docs Working In The Field Of Orthogonal Polynomials And Special Functions, And In Related Fields Interacting With Orthogonal Polynomials, Such As Combinatorics, Computer Algebra, Asymptotics, Representation Theory, Harmonic Analysis, Differential Equations, Physics. The Lectures Are Self-contained Requiring Only A Basic Knowledge Of Analysis And Algebra, And Each Includes Many Exercises. Preface -- W.
