About the Authors

Charles F. Dunkl is Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at the University of Virginia. Among his work one finds the seminal papers containing the construction of differential-difference operators associated to finite reflection groups and related integral transforms. Aspects of the theory are now called Dunkl operators, the Dunkl transform, and the Dunkl kernel. Dunkl is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, and a member of SIAM and of its Activity Group on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions, which he founded in 1990 and then chaired from 1990 to 1998.

Yuan Xu is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oregon. His work covers topics in approximation theory, harmonic analysis, numerical analysis, orthogonal polynomials and special functions, and he works mostly in problems of several variables. Xu is currently on the editorial board of five international journals and has been a plenary or invited speaker in numerous international conferences. He was awarded a Humboldt research fellowship in 1992–93 and received a Faculty Excellence Award at the University of Oregon in 2009. He is a member of SIAM and of its Activity Group on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions.
