Approximation properties related to the Bell polynomials

Abstract

The authors provide a complete asymptotic expansion for a class of functions in terms of the complete Bell polynomials. In particular, they obtain known asymptotic expansions of some Keller type sequences.

Keywords

• Asymptotic expansions
• Bell polynomials
