MW1: Orthogonal polynomials, random matrix theory and integrable systems


Coordinator: Arno Kuijlaars (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven)

In recent years, the classical theory of orthogonal polynomials has found many interesting applications in random matrix theory and integrable systems. The aim of the workshop is to present and discuss a number of these developments. The main focus will be on asymptotic questions, where the Riemann-Hilbert method provides a powerful new tool.
