Author Information

Luc Vinet is Aisenstadt Professor of Physics at the Université de Montréal and was appointed as Chief Executive Officer of IVADO in August 2021. Born in Montréal, he holds a doctorate from the Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris) and a Ph.D. from the Université de Montréal, both in theoretical physics. After two years as a Research Associate at MIT, he was appointed  Assistant Professor in the Physics Department at the Université de Montréal in the early 1980s and promoted to full professorship in 1992. His research interests in theoretical and mathematical physics include: exactly solvable problems, symmetries, algebraic structures, special functions, and quantum information.   Howard Cohl is a Mathematician at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA. There he serves as Technical Editor for the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions Project. Cohl has a B.S.  in Astronomy and Astrophyics (1990) from Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, USA; M.S. (1994) and Ph.D. (1999) in Physics from Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA, and a Ph.D. in Mathematics (2010) from The University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand.  Cohl's research interests lie primarily in the area of special functions which provide solutions to linear ordinary and partial differential and difference equations.  These include generalized, basic and bilateral hypergeometric series, orthogonal polynomials in the Askey and q-Askey schemes and as well their linear and bilinear generating functions.   Sarah Post is an Associate Professor in Mathematics at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa. She has a B.S. in Physics and Mathematics (2004) from St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY and a Master's and Ph.D. (2009) from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. After her Ph.D. she spent three years as a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques in Montréal, Canada. Her research interests lie in the intersection between mathematical physics, representation theory, orthogonal polynomials and special functions.    Josée Savard is an IVADO's Research Coordinator at Université de Montréal since 2021. She holds a Master's degree in Earth Sciences from Université du Québec à Montréal (2001), specializing in geochemistry. Passionate about research, she has since held several positions in research administration, assisting university researchers with various research-related mandates.
