1: 5.11 Asymptotic Expansions

… ►For explicit formulas for $g_k$ in terms of Stirling numbers see Nemes (2013a), and for asymptotic expansions of $g_k$ as $k\to \mathrm{\infty }$ see Boyd (1994) and Nemes (2015a). ►

Terminology

►The expansion (5.11.1) is called Stirling’s series (Whittaker and Watson (1927, §12.33)), whereas the expansion (5.11.3), or sometimes just its leading term, is known as Stirling’s formula (Abramowitz and Stegun (1964, §6.1), Olver (1997b, p. 88)). …

10: Errata

… ►

Just above §17.6(i) a paragraph Analytic Continuation was inserted describing the analytic continuation of the formulas which follow.

… ►

The title of the paragraph which was previously “Gasper’s $q$-Analog of Clausen’s Formula” has been changed to “Gasper’s $q$-Analog of Clausen’s Formula (16.12.2)”.

… ►

The wording was changed to make the integration variable more apparent.

… ►

Additional keywords are being added to formulas (an ongoing project); these are visible in the associated ‘info boxes’ linked to the icons to the right of each formula, and provide better search capabilities.

Originally the Stirling number $s(10,6)$ was given incorrectly as 6327. The correct number is 63273.
