Bell Number - Asymptotic Limit and Bounds

Asymptotic Limit and Bounds

Several asymptotic formulae for the Bell numbers are known. One such is

Here

where W is the Lambert W function. (Lovász, 1993)

Moser and Wyman established the expansion

uniformly for as, where and each and are known expressions in .

In (Berend, D. and Tassa, T., 2010), the following bounds were established:

moreover, if then for all ,

where and ~d(x):= \ln \ln (x+1) - \ln \ln x + \frac{1+e^{-1}}{\ln x}\,.

Famous quotes containing the words limit and/or bounds:

    “There is no limit to what a man can do so long as he does not care a straw who gets the credit for it.”
    —C.E. (Charles Edward)

    “Firmness yclept in heroes, kings and seamen,
    That is, when they succeed; but greatly blamed
    As obstinacy, both in men and women,
    Whene’er their triumph pales, or star is tamed —
    And ‘twill perplex the casuist in morality
    To fix the due bounds of this dangerous quality.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
