    Fields Institute Communications
    Volume: 141997; 277 pp
    MSC: Primary 33; 05; 11; 42; 68; Secondary 17; 40

    This book contains contributions from the proceedings at The Fields Institute workshop on Special Functions, \(q\)-Series and Related Topics that was held in June 1995. The articles cover areas from quantum groups and their representations, multivariate special functions, \(q\)-series, and symbolic algebra techniques as well as the traditional areas of single-variable special functions. The book contains both pure and applied topics and reflects recent trends of research in the various areas of special functions.

    Titles in this series are co-published with the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences (Toronto, Ontario, Canada).

    Readership

    Graduate students, research mathematicians, and scientists interested in special functions and its applications.
