Topic #1 ------------- OP-SF NET 9.2 -------------- March 15, 2002
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From: OP-SF NET Editor <muldoon@yorku.ca>
Subject: Communications Committee
Immediately below (Topic #2), in the Message from the Chair, you will see a
proposal for a Communications Committee, which I am going to Chair. The
communications job is a large one and we need several people to help. My
idea, which will be discussed with the committee is that we should have a
person in charge of the meetings calendar, one in charge of soliciting
reports of past meetings, one on charge book announcements and reviews, one
to report on preprints in the xxx archive, etc. I hope that this will
increase the service to readers without putting an undue burden on any of
the volunteers. I would like to hear your views on this and also welcome
volunteers for the committee.
Topic #2 ------------- OP-SF NET 9.2 -------------- March 15, 2002
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From: Dan Lozier <lozier@nist.gov>
Subject: Message from the Chair
Over the next 3 years the newly elected leadership of the activity group
will be working hard to bring you the kinds of programs and services that
we hope you will find interesting and useful. Below I will describe three
developments that are in various stages of planning.
1. Communications Committee. The idea of forming this committee arose at
an OPSF activity group meeting that was held during the Rome OPSFA
conference in June 2001. Our printed and electronic newsletters, and our
Web site, do a good job of disseminating information about orthogonal
polynomials and special functions. The four people who provide this
service are named at the end of every newsletter: Renato Alvarez-Nodarse,
Rafael Yanez, Martin Muldoon, and Bonita Saunders. Each has explicit
responsibility to use a particular communications channel to present
essentially the same information. But the responsibility to gather this
information is implicit. The new Communications Committee will be
responsible as a team both to gather information and to disseminate it.
The committee will determine its own internal structure and division of
work among its members. Martin Muldoon has agreed to coordinate the
development of the committee. Some OPSF members have already offered to
serve on the committee, and others may be asked to serve. If you are
interested in this opportunity, please contact Martin directly.
2. Szego Prize. SIAM has a number of prizes in various areas of applied
mathematics that are named after prominent researchers. The idea of
working with SIAM to establish a prize for research in OPSF has been
discussed among the activity group officers from time to time, most
recently at the activity group meeting in June 2001. The name Szego Prize
was introduced at that meeting. Subsequently I talked with SIAM executive
director Jim Crowley and SIAM technical director Bill Kolata. They support
the idea, provided the financial arrangements can be worked out. Each SIAM
prize has what I will call an endowment, for lack of a better term, from
which the earnings provide cash to cover most of the expenses associated
with the prize. SIAM manages prize endowments as part of its regular
investment program. A big task for us, in addition to establishing the
terms of the prize, will be to establish the endowment. I hope that we
will be able to push forward with this idea, and I will make sure you are
informed as progress is made.
3. SSFA Conference in India. Our activity group has a sister society in
India, the Society for Special Functions and Applications. It was formed,
using our SIAM charter as a model, after a successful conference in 1997 in
which some of our members were participants. Another conference is being
planned for September 23 - 27, 2002, to be preceded by a week-long workshop
on computer algebra and the software packages Hyp and Hyp-q. Some of our
members are on the advisory committee and the tentative list of speakers.
There was hope that a funding contribution of $5000 might come from the
U.S. SIAM identified a possible NSF program and offered to prepare the
application, with technical input from us, but further investigation made
it clear that the application would not be successful. I hope the
conference will take place as planned even without U.S. support. Watch the
Forthcoming Meetings and Conferences section of the newsletter for further
announcements.
Let me close by welcoming new officer Peter Clarkson and returning officers
Walter Van Assche and Paco Marcellan. I also wish to thank Peter McCoy and
Charles Dunkl, our founder, first chair and outgoing secretary, for running
for the offices of Secretary and Vice Chair, respectively.

Subject: Book "The Mysteries of the Real Prime"
The following book announcement is from the web site:
http://www.oup-usa.org/isbn/0198508689.html
The Mysteries of the Real Prime
M.J. SHAI HARAN, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel
In this important and original monograph, useful for both academic and
professional researchers and students of mathematics and physics, the
author describes his work on the Riemann zeta function and its adelic
interpretation. It provides an original point of view, bringing new, highly
useful dictionaries between different fields of mathematics. It develops an
arithmetical approach to the continuum of real numbers and unifies many
areas of mathematics including: Markov Chains, q-series, Elliptic curves,
the Heisenberg group, quantum groups, and special functions (such as the
Gamma, Beta, Zeta, theta, Bessel functions, the Askey-Wilson and the
classical orthogonal polynomials) The text discusses real numbers from a
p-adic point of view, first mooted by Arakelov. It includes original work
on coherent theory, with implications for number theory and uses ideas from
probability theory including Markov chains and noncommutative geometry
which unifies the p-adic theory and the real theory by constructing a
theory of quantum orthogonal polynomials.

From: Tom Koornwinder <thk@science.uva.nl>
Subject: Book on Quantum Calculus
The following book announcement is from the web site:
http://www.springer.de/cgi-bin/search_book.pl?isbn=0-387-95341-8
V. Kac and P. Cheung, MIT, Cambridge, MA, USA
Quantum Calculus
2002. IX, 112 pp. Softcover
0-387-95341-8
Series: Universitext.
Recommended Retail Price: EUR 34,95
Simply put, quantum calculus is ordinary calculus without taking limits.
This undergraduate text develops two types of quantum calculi, the
q-calculus and the h-calculus. As this book develops quantum calculus along
the lines of traditional calculus, the reader discovers, with a remarkable
inevitability, many important notions and results of classical mathematics.
This book is written at the level of a first course in calculus and linear
algebra and is aimed at undergraduate and beginning graduate students in
mathematics, computer science, and physics. It is based on lectures and
seminars given by Professor Kac over the last few years at MIT.
>From the contents: q-derivative and h-derivative.- Generalized Taylor's
formula for polynomials.- q-analogue of (x-a)n, n an integer, and
q-derivatives of binomials.- q-Taylor's formula for polynomials.- Gauss'
binomial formula and a non-commutative binomial formula.- Properties of
q-binomial coefficients.- q-binomial coefficients and linear algebra over
finite fields.- q-Taylor's formula for formal power series and Heine's
binomial formula.- Two Euler identities and two q-exponential functions.-
q-trigonometric functions.- Jacobi's triple product identity.- Classical
partition function and Euler's product formula.- q-hypergeometric functions
and Heine's formula.

Topic #10 ------------- OP-SF NET 9.2 -------------- March 15, 2002
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From: OP-SF NET Editor <muldoon@yorku.ca>
Subject: About the Activity Group
The SIAM Activity Group on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions
consists of a broad set of mathematicians, both pure and applied. The
Group also includes engineers and scientists, students as well as experts.
We have around 140 members scattered about in more than 20 countries.
Whatever your specialty might be, we welcome your participation in this
classical, and yet modern, topic. Our WWW home page is:
http://math.nist.gov/opsf/
This is a convenient point of entry to all the services provided by the
Group. Our Webmaster is Bonita Saunders (bonita.saunders@nist.gov).
The Activity Group sponsors OP-SF NET, which is transmitted periodically by
SIAM. It is provided as a free public service; membership in SIAM is not
required. The OP-SF Net Editor is Martin Muldoon (muldoon@yorku.ca).
To receive the OP-SF NET, send your name and email address to
poly-request@siam.org.

The NET provides fast turnaround compared to the printed Newsletter, also
sponsored by the Activity Group, and edited by Renato Alvarez-Nodarse and
Rafael Yanez. It appears three times a year and is mailed by SIAM. Back
issues are accessible at:
