The International Symposium on Orthogonal Polynomials, Special Functions and Applications, organized by the University of Kent will take place from 3rd July to 7th July 2017 at the University of Kent in Canterbury, United Kingdom. The conference will cover areas like provide a forum for mathematicians, physicists, computational scientists, and application scientists in other fields to communicate recent research results in the areas of orthogonal polynomials and special functions (OPSF). OPSF plays an essential role in analytical and computational investigations in applied mathematics.
