Contains graduate-level introductions by international experts to five areas of research in orthogonal polynomials and special functions.

This volume presents the idea that one studies orthogonal polynomials and special functions to use them to solve problems.

Special functions and orthogonal polynomials in particular have been around for centuries. Can you imagine mathematics without trigonometric functions, the expo
