Special Functions in Portugal in July 2003.  (Contact person: Amilcar
Branquinho). This is in the series Laredo (2000), Inzell (2001) and Leuven
(2002; see Topic #5). The coordinator of the three summer schools is Erik
Koelink (koelink@dutiaw4.twi.tudelft.nl). These summer schools are part of
our Activity Group's scientific program. The scientific committee consists
of Erik Koelink, Rupert Lasser, Amilcar Branquinho, Paco Marcellan and
Walter Van Assche.

Dan Lozier (OP-SF NET 9.4, Topic #2) suggests a SIAM-sponsored meeting in
Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions to be held in Washington, DC
in June 2004.

Subject: Message from the Editor

There was a delay in sending out OP-SF NET 9.4.  This was partly because we
wanted to make sure that the Message from the Chair (Topic #2) did not
misrepresent anything SIAM Director Jim Crowley had said about he matters
discussed there. This took longer than expected.

The matters discussed are important because they involve two possible new
initiatives for our Activity Group: a SIAM-sponsored OP-SF Prize, and a
SIAM-sponsored OP-SF Conference in Washington, DC, in June 2004. Please
refer to the Message from the Chair in OP-SF NET 9.4 for further
information.

Hilbert space, boundary value problems and orthogonal Polynomials,
Birkhauser, 2002.
368 pages, Hardcover, Euro 128.-, Swiss Francs 192.-; ISBN 3-7643-6701-6

This monograph consists of three parts: the abstract theory of Hilbert
spaces, leading up to the spectral theory of unbounded self-adjoined
operators; the application to linear Hamiltonian systems, giving the
details of the spectral resolution; and further applications such as to
orthogonal polynomials and Sobolev differential operators.

Written in textbook style this up-to-date volume is geared towards graduate
and postgraduate students and researchers interested in boundary value
problems of linear differential equations or in orthogonal polynomials.

Subject: Call for Nominations - The Peter Henrici Prize

Call for Nominations - The Peter Henrici Prize

The Peter Henrici Prize is awarded jointly by the Eidgenossische Technische
Hochschule Zurich (ETHZ) and the Society for Industrial and Applied
Mathematics (SIAM).  The prize is awarded for original contributions to
applied analysis and numerical analysis and/or for exposition appropriate
for applied mathematics and scientific computing.  The prize is intended to
recognize broad and extended contributions to these subjects, rather than a
single outstanding work.

The next award will be presented at the Fifth International Congress on
Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ICIAM 2003) in Sydney, Australia, 7-11
July 2003.

Eligibility

There are no restrictions on eligibility beyond those specified above.

Description of the Award

The award is to include a certificate containing the citation and a cash
prize of $2500 plus reasonable travel costs to attend the prize ceremony.

Selection Committee

The selection committee for the 2003 Henrici Prize consists of Germund
Dahlquist (KTH, Stockholm, Sweden), Gene H. Golub (Stanford University),
Martin Gutknecht, Chair (ETH Zurich), and Rolf Jeltsch (ETH Zurich).

Nominations

Nominations may be made by anyone, including members of the selection
committee.  It is the responsibility of the nominator to provide all
relevant information to the selection committee, including a resume and any
letter(s) of support.  In case his or her nominee will be chosen, the
nominator will also be asked to provide the draft of a citation of about
100 words that can be read at the award ceremony.

Letters of nomination should be sent by DECEMBER 1, 2002, to

Subject: 2003 SIAM Student Paper Prizes


The 2003 SIAM Student Paper Prizes will be presented at the First Joint
Meeting of CAIMS and SIAM, June 16-20, at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in
Montreal, Canada.  This meeting also will serve as SIAM's 2003 Annual
Meeting.

Up to three papers will be selected for the prizes.

      Principal Guidelines
      --------------------
      The SIAM Student Paper Prizes are awarded every year to the
      student author(s) of the most outstanding paper(s) submitted
      to the SIAM Student Paper Competition. This award is based
      solely on the merit and content of the student's
      contribution to submitted paper.

      The purpose of the Student Paper Prizes is to recognize
      outstanding scholarship by students in applied mathematics
      or computing.

      Selection Procedures
      --------------------
      Eligibility
      Eligibility is restricted to students in good standing who
      have not received their Ph.D. at the time of submitting
      their entry or who have completed their degree within one
      year of submission of their entry.

      Submissions may be based on co-authored papers, provided
      that the student's advisor will attest that the student's
      work played a pivotal role in the results. A letter from
      the student's advisor or department chair must accompany
      each entry to verify these conditions.

      To enter the competition, a student must submit: (1) an
      extended abstract in English of a paper, and (2) a short
      biography. The total length of the submitted abstract
      (including bibliography) may not exceed five pages. The
      student also must submit the complete paper, which will be
      used for clarification of any questions the selection
      committee may have on the extended abstract. In addition,
      the student's advisor or an interested faculty member must
      submit a letter describing and evaluating the paper's
      contribution to the literature, and the student's role in
      the scholarship.

      For the 2003 award, all papers and accompanying
      documentation must be received at the SIAM office by
      February 16, 2003.

      Notification of Prize Winner
      ----------------------------
      The SIAM president will notify the recipient(s) at least six
      weeks before the award date.

      Each recipient is required to present his or her paper at
      the meeting where the prizes are awarded; if attending
      the meeting poses a serious hardship, an exception may be
      granted by the SIAM president.

      Description of the Award
      ------------------------
      Each recipient of the SIAM Student Paper Prize shall receive
      a framed certificate and a cash award of $1,000, plus $500 toward
      travel expenses.

      Please direct your submission and any questions you may have to
      A. Bogardo at SIAM, 3600 University City Science Center,
      Philadelphia, PA 19104-2688; telephone (215) 382-9800; e-mail to

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:
