Laredo Lectures on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions
This new book presents research in orthogonal polynomials and special functions. Recent developments in the theory and accomplishments of the last decade are pointed out and directions for research in the future are identified. The topics covered include matrix orthogonal polynomials, spectral theory and special functions, Asymptotics for orthogonal polynomials via Riemann-Hilbert methods, Polynomial wavelets and Koornwinder polynomials.
Lectures on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions
Contains graduate-level introductions by international experts to five areas of research in orthogonal polynomials and special functions.
Algebras, Rings and Modules
The main goal of this book is to present an introduction to and applications of the theory of Hopf algebras. The authors also discuss some important aspects of the theory of Lie algebras. The first chapter can be viewed as a primer on Lie algebras, with the main goal to explain and prove the Gabriel-Bernstein-Gelfand-Ponomarev theorem on the correspondence between the representations of Lie algebras and quivers; this material has not previously appeared in book form. The next two chapters are also ""primers"" on coalgebras and Hopf algebras, respectively; they aim specifically to give sufficient background on these topics for use in the main part of the book. Chapters 4-7 are devoted to four...
Special Functions 2000: Current Perspective and Future Directions
The Advanced Study Institute brought together researchers in the main areas of special functions and applications to present recent developments in the theory, review the accomplishments of past decades, and chart directions for future research. Some of the topics covered are orthogonal polynomials and special functions in one and several variables, asymptotic, continued fractions, applications to number theory, combinatorics and mathematical physics, integrable systems, harmonic analysis and quantum groups, Painlevé classification.
Locally Compact Quantum Groups and Groupoids
The book contains seven refereed research papers on locally compact quantum groups and groupoids by leading experts in the respective fields. These contributions are based on talks presented on the occasion of the meeting between mathematicians and theoretical physicists held in Strasbourg from February 21 to February 23, 2002. Topics covered are: various constructions of locally compact quantum groups and their multiplicative unitaries; duality theory for locally compact quantum groups; combinatorial quantization of flat connections associated with SL(2,c); quantum groupoids, especially coming from Depth 2 Extensions of von Neumann algebras, C*-algebras and Rings. Many mathematical results are motivated by problems in theoretical physics. Historical remarks set the results presented in perspective. Directed at research mathematicians and theoretical physicists as well as graduate students, the volume will give an overview of a field of research in which great progress has been achieved in the last few years, with new ties to many other areas of mathematics and physics.
