Welcome

The 15th International Symposium on Orthogonal Polynomials, Special Functions and Applications (OPSFA) will take place in Hagenberg, Austria, from July 22 to July 26, 2019. It is organized by the Research Institute for Symbolic Computation (RISC) of the Johannes Kepler University Linz (JKU) and the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW).

This symposium is an event of the SIAM Activity Group on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions.
