Mathematical Reviews (MR) and Zentralblatt MATH (Zbl) cooperate in
maintaining the Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC) which is used
by these reviewing services and others to categorize items in the
mathematical sciences literature. The current version, MSC2000, is being
revised for use in 2010. MR and Zbl welcome community input into this
revision process. Comments can be submitted through the classification
feedback form
http://www.msc2010.org/msc-feedback.php

(SIAG/APDE) will present the SIAG/APDE Prize at the SIAM Conference on
Analysis of PDE (PD07) to be held December 10-12, 2007, in Mesa,
Arizona.
The SIAG/APDE Prize, established in 2005, is awarded to the author(s) of
the most outstanding paper on a topic in PDE published in English in a
peer-reviewed journal within the four calendar years preceding the year
of the award. A candidate paper must
bear a publication date between
January 1, 2003, and December 31, 2006.
It must contain significant
research contributions to the field of analysis of PDE, as commonly
defined in the mathematical literature, with direct or potential
applications.
The award will consist of a plaque and a certificate containing the
award citation. At least one of the
awardees is expected to attend the
award ceremony and to present the paper as a plenary lecture at the
meeting. Travel expenses will be
available to reimburse one speaker.
Nominations should include a full bibliographic citation for the paper
and a brief statement outlining the justification for the nomination in
terms of its importance and impact.
Nominations should be addressed to
Professor Mary Pugh, Chair, SIAG/APDE Prize Committee and sent by May
15, 2007 to J. M. Littleton at littleton@siam.org
. Inquiries should be
addressed to littleton@siam.org . Complete calls for nominations for

Topic #12 ----------- OP-SF NET 14.2 ----------- March 15,
2007
From: OP-SF NET Editors
Subject: About the Activity Group
The SIAM Activity Group on Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions
consists of a broad set of mathematicians, both pure and applied. The
Group also includes engineers and scientists, students as well as
experts. We have around 140 members scattered about in more than 20
countries. Whatever your specialty might be, we welcome your
participation in this classical, and yet modern, topic. Our WWW home
page is:
http://math.nist.gov/opsf/
This is a convenient point of entry to all the services provided by the
Group. Our Webmaster is Bonita Saunders
(bonita.saunders@nist.gov).
The Activity Group sponsors OP-SF NET, which is transmitted periodically
by SIAM. It is provided as a free
public service; membership in SIAM
is not required. The OP-SF Net Editors
are Diego Dominici
(dominicd@newpaltz.edu) and Martin
Muldoon (muldoon@yorku.ca).
To receive the OP-SF NET, send your name and email address to
poly-request@siam.org .
Back issues can be obtained at the WWW addresses:

http://www.math.ohio-state.edu/JAT/DATA/OPSFNET/opsfnet.html
http://cio.nist.gov/esd/emaildir/lists/opsfnet/maillist.html
For several years the Activity Group sponsored a printed Newsletter,
most recently edited by Rafael Yanez. Back issues are accessible at:
http://www.mathematik.uni-kassel.de/~koepf/siam.html
Given the widespread availability of email and the Internet, the need for
the printed Newsletter has decreased. Discussions are underway concerning
whether an annual printed Newsletter or Annual Report should be
instituted.
SIAM has several categories of membership, including low-cost categories
for students and residents of developing countries. For current
information on SIAM and Activity Group membership, contact:

Mathematics

OP-SF NET is a forum of the SIAM
Activity Group on
Special Functions and Orthogonal Polynomials.
We disseminate your contributions on
anything of interest to the
special functions and orthogonal
polynomials community. This
includes announcements of
conferences, forthcoming books, new
software, electronic archives,
research questions, job openings.
