INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS:
 "Numerical and Symbolic algorithms"
  
 General Information 
 Dear Colleagues,
It is well known the increasing attention paid in the 
last years to the theory of Orthogonal Polynomials. 
In particular since their applications in a lot of different areas
like numerical integration, spectral methods, interpolation, 
approximation theory, etc. Also
in combinatorics, mathematical physics, quantum physics, etc. For this reason
the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid  organizes every two years
an international workshop devoted to this topic. The first edition in 1992 was
dedicated to Sobolev orthogonal polynomials, in 1994 to 
polynomials orthogonal in the unit circle, and the last one
  IWOP'96 , 
held in 1996, to the applications of orthogonal polynomials in mathematical physics. 
 
The main aim of the 1998's edition of the 
Workshop was that a reduced number of invited mathematicians discuss and review 
recent progress  of the Theory of Orthogonal Polynomials with 
 special emphasis  in the numerical applications and simbolic algorithms. 
The Workshop  took place 
in the main building of the   Escuela Politécnica Superior, 
(room 2F01, located in the second floor of the building)
Universidad Carlos III de Madrid,  Leganés (Madrid).
  The topics considered were:
-    Combinatorics
-    Numerical Linear Algebra
-    Quadrature formulas
-    Spectral methods in boundary value problems
-    Symbolic algorithms and software
There were 12 plenary lectures and 28 short communications. The titles
can be found below.
How to get Escuela Politécnica Superior
 The best way to get the Escuela Politécnica Superior is by using the 
trains  Cercanias  which can be reach from Atocha Railway Station
 Cercanias Line C5 (direction Fuenlabrada) and leave the train in the 
Station  Leganés (not in Zarzaquemada!) which is at 5 min. waking fron the 
University. Please see a scheme of getting to the 
University Campus 
, or if you prefer, see a more detailed map
