Subject: From the Editor
More than 140 members of the OP-SF community enjoyed the 6th International
Symposium on Orthogonal Polynomials, Special Functions and Applications held at
Lido di Ostia, near Rome, June 18-22. Many thanks to the local organizers
Andrea
Laforgia, Paolo Emilio Ricci, Pierpaolo Natalini, Fabrizio Pascucci, Gino
Palumbo
and members of the staffs of Universita di Roma Tre and Universita di Roma "La
Sapienza" for an excellent program and for ensuring that all went smoothly. We
hope to have a more detailed report in our next issue.
As mentioned by Daniel in the Message from the Chair (Topic #2), we have
elections this year for the officers of the group. We also welcome suggestions
and volunteers for positions as editor for OP-SF NET and the printed Newsletter.
It seems to me that we might consider an arrangement where there is an editorial
group (we already have it informally to some extent) whose membership might
change from time to time but which not require anybody to suddenly "take over"
when there is a vacancy. If you have ideas along these lines or would like to
help out please contact me or any of the officers.
Topic #2 -------------- OP-SF NET 8.4 ---------------- July 15, 2001

From: Daniel Lozier <daniel.lozier@nist.gov>
Subject: Message from the Chair
Two recent meetings of interest to our activity group have taken place.
The first was a meeting of our members and officers who were present at the
Sixth International Symposium on Orthogonal Polynomials, Special Functions
and Applications (OPSFA), held last month in Ostia near Rome, Italy. All
four officers and a dozen members attended. The second was a meeting, which
I attended, of the SIAM activity group chairpersons that SIAM conducted on
July 11 at its annual meeting in San Diego.
1. One item of discussion at the OPSFA meeting was nomination of candidates
for the upcoming election for Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Program
Director. According to our SIAM charter, a nominating committee will
develop the slate of candidates and SIAM will conduct the election later
this year. The nominating committee consists of Dan Lozier, Walter Van
Assche, Paco Marcellan, Charles Dunkl, Martin Muldoon and Renato
Alvarez-Nodarse. The newly elected officers will serve for 3 years starting
on January 1, 2002. If you know someone who would like to serve as an
officer, including yourself, please let me know by August 3.
Then the current and future activity group program was discussed. Two definite
program events are on the calendar. The Summer School on Orthogonal
Polynomials,
Harmonic Analysis, Approximations and Applications, will be held at Inzell,
Bavaria, September 17-21, 2001. Information can be obtained from OP-SF NET 8.3,
Topic #3 or from http://www.gsf.de/ibb/ag1/summerschool. A special lecture and
minisymposium will be sponsored by our group at the 2002 SIAM Annual Meeting, to
be held July 8-12, in Philadelphia. Nico Temme will present the special
lecture,
and he is working with Paco Marcellan, our Program Director, to develop the
minisymposium. SIAM is planning special events at this meeting to celebrate its
50th anniversary and to highlight the activity groups.
2. The purpose of the second meeting was to examine and strengthen the
relationship between SIAM and the activity groups. Some interesting
background information was provided about the SIAM annual meetings: usually
about 1000 people attend; a large fraction are not members of SIAM; almost
all SIAM members who attend are speakers; and student participation is about
18% on average. SIAM reaches out to students by sponsoring chapters at
universities and by offering a reduced membership rate for students. Also,
students can apply for travel grants to attend SIAM meetings. Future annual
meetings may include more professional activities, such as job fairs.
SIAM intends to hire a staff coordinator to work with the activity groups. An
early project is to develop an activity group presence at the main SIAM Web
site. John Guckenheimer, past president of SIAM, is helping establish the
first of these (DS-Web) for the dynamical systems activity group.
SIAM is seeking to increase participation of the activity groups in the
governing of SIAM, for example by circulating proposed nominations for SIAM
offices to the groups for comments and recommendations.
Privately I raised several issues of concern to our group with Jim Crowley,
SIAM Executive Director. One was the question of editorial direction at the
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis. Jim expressed his desire to satisfy
our needs for adequate representation on the editorial board and in the
stated scope of the journal. He suggested directly approaching the chief
editor, Walter Strauss, about these matters. Another issue was the
possibility of SIAM financial support to help one or two students attend our
Summer Schools, such as the one in Inzell. Jim supports the idea in
principle; of course we will need to prepare a proposal to SIAM. Finally, I
raised the idea of establishing a prize for a thesis, or paper published
within a few years of the thesis, in the area of orthogonal polynomials and
special functions. This was discussed at the OPSFA meeting, where the
following tentative particulars emerged: the prize would be offered on a
3-year cycle; it would be called the Szego Prize; it would be awarded and
the recipient would present a paper at the SIAM annual meeting; and the
recipient would recieve complimentary annual meeting registration and a cash
award of $500. Jim supported this idea enthusiastically. The next step is
to prepare an application to SIAM stating the goals and purposes and
guidelines for selection. I think this should be a priority next year for
the new officers of our group.

Eric Opdam and Tom Koornwinder
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ian Macdonald
Ian Macdonald (1928) is working in pure mathematics, in particular group theory,
algebraic combinatorics and the theory of special functions. Remarkable features
of his work are its great originality and an almost infallible intuition for
posing fundamental research questions. Macdonald has become famous amongst
mathematicians a.o. by his book 'Symmetric functions and Hall polynomials' and
by
the introduction of the Macdonald polynomials.
'Symmetric functions and Hall polynomials' (1979, much extended second edition
in
1995) is a standard reference book about the representation theory of the
symmetric group and its many combinatorical, algebraic and group theoretical
applications. In 'Affine root systems and Dedekind's eta-function' (Inventiones
Mathematicae 15, 1972) he establishes a connection between a number theoretical
observation by the physicist Freeman Dyson and the theory of simple Lie
algebras.
In 'Some conjectures for root systems' (SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis
13,
1982) Macdonald formulates some conjectures about the combinatorical properties
of so-called root systems. In 1987/88 he defines a class of symmetric functions,
and more generally a class of polynomials associated with root systems, which
are
now both known as Macdonald polynomials (see 'A new class of symmetric
functions'
and 'Orthogonal polynomials associated with root systems' in Seminaire
Lotharingien Combinatoire 20, 1988 and 45, 2000). The impact of these
polynomials, both in mathematics and in theoretical physics, has been enormous.
Ian Macdonald started his scientific career in 1957 as a lecturer in mathematics
at the University of Manchester. Until his retirement in 1987 Macdonald has
worked during many years as a professor at Queen Mary College in London. Since
his retirement he has remained active in research with publications and
lectures.

From: Allison Bogardo <bogardo@siam.org>
Subject: Eduardo Sontag Wins Reid Prize
SIAM has announced that its 2001 W.T. and Idalia Reid Prize in
Mathematics will be awarded to Professor Eduardo Sontag of Rutgers
University. The prize is awarded for research in, or other
contributions to, the broadly defined areas of differential equations
and control theory. The selection committee (comprised of John A.
Burns as chair, Ruth F. Curtain, James G. Glimm, and John
Guckenheimer) cited Sontag's many contributions to nonlinear control
theory.
Professor Sontag will receive the Reid Medal and a $10,000 cash award
at the SIAM Annual Meeting in San Diego in July. Sontag will deliver
the Reid lecture on Wednesday, July 11, at 5:20 p.m. in the Town and
Country Room of the Town and Country Resort Hotel. The title of his
talk will be "The central themes of systems and control theory, and
their role in postgenomic molecular biology."
The prize is named for William T. and Idalia Reid, William T. having
been a renowned mathematics professor at the University of Chicago,
Northwestern University, University of Iowa, and University of
Oklahoma. Previous Reid Prize recipients are Wendell H. Fleming, Roger
W. Brockett, Constantine M. Dafermos, and the late Jacques-Louis
Lions.

Topic #9 -------------- OP-SF NET 8.4 ---------------- July 15, 2001
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
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.
Back issues can be obtained at the WWW addresses:

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:
http://www.mathematik.uni-kassel.de/~koepf/siam.html
To receive the Newsletter, you must be a member of SIAM and of the Activity
Group. SIAM has several categories of membership, including low-cost categories
for students and residents of developing countries. For current information on
