RESEARCH and ACTIVITIES

• Asymptotic expansions.
  In particular asymptotic methods for integrals and uniform expansions, with applications to special functions, orthogonal polynomials and problems from physics.
• Computation of special functions.
  Algorithms based on recursion relations, asymptotic expansions and other series representations, and numerical quadrature.
• Several topics from applied analysis.
• NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions, the revision of the Handbook of Mathematical Functions (Abramowitz and Stegun, eds.).
  The Handbook was first published by the National Bureau of Standards in 1964, last corrected in 1972, and still in print. See NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions for information. Published by Cambridge University Press, 2010.
• Algorithmic Methods for Special Functions by Computer Algebra.
  This postdoc project was sponsored by NWO, coordinated by Tom Koornwinder (KdV Institute, Universiteit van Amsterdam) and Nico Temme (CWI, Amsterdam), and performed by Raimundas Vidunas. See Algorithmic Methods for Special Functions by Computer Algebra.
