This volume contains the proceedings of a minisymposium and two AMS special sessions in three conferences: Minisymposium on All Things Hypergeometric, $q$-series and Generalizations at the 16th International Symposium on Orthogonal Polynomials, Special Functions and Applications (OPSFA-16), June 13-17, 2022, Centre de Recherches Mathematiques, Montreal, Quebec, Canada; AMS Special Session on Hypergeometric Functions and $q$-series at the 2022 AMS Fall Western Sectional Meeting, October 22-23, 2022, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah; and the AMS Special Session on Hypergeometric Functions, $q$-series and Generalizations, at the 2023 AMS Spring Eastern Virtual Sectional Meeting, April 1-2, 2023. This book provides a sampling of recent research on applications of classical hypergeometric and related special functions to problems in mathematical physics and elsewhere, and on $q$-extensions of hypergeometric functions and other topics in $q$-calculus. The problems in mathematical physics include the explicit integration of the stationary SchrO¨dinger equation with many potentials and the computation of the gravitational potential of an ellipsoidal mass in terms of elliptic integrals. The $q$-calculus topics include a study of Ramanujan's q- continued fractions and the derivation of new $q$-identities. All research articles come with extensive bibliographies and can serve as entry points to the current literature.
