Special Functions, Q-Series, and Related Topics

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.
