Welcome to my professional web page! My name is Árpád Baricz. I was born in Gheorgheni [Gyergyószentmiklós], Harghita [Hargita] county, Romania on September 7, 1981, and spent my childhood in the villages of Joseni [Gyergyóalfalu] and Ciumani [Gyergyócsomafalva]. I received my Bachelor of Science [B.Sc.], Master of Science [M.Sc.], and Doctor of Philosophy [Ph.D.] degrees in mathematics from Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, Babeş-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca [Kolozsvár], Romania, in 2003, 2004, and 2008, respectively. In 2008 I also received a Ph.D. degree in mathematics from the Institute of Mathematics, University of Debrecen, Hungary. I am full professor at Department of Business Administration, Extension Sfântu Gheorghe, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Romania and at Institute of Applied Mathematics, John von Neumann Faculty of Informatics, Óbuda University, Budapest, Hungary. Since 2006 I teach in Hungarian and Romanian probability theory and statistics for economics students at Department of Business Administration, Extension Sfântu Gheorghe, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Babeș-Bolyai University. Since 2017 I teach in English the asymptotic analysis of special functions for applied mathematics master students at Institute of Applied Mathematics, Óbuda University. Moreover, recently I also teach in Hungarian a course on special functions for mathematics students at Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, Babeș-Bolyai University.

     My research interests include orthogonal polynomials and special functions, complex function theory, analytic inequalities, probability theory and recently I am also interested in Riemann-Hilbert problems and asymptotic analysis, especially in the steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems. Listed below are some of my selected scientific papers that give a perspective on some of my research areas:
