11: 2.11 Remainder Terms; Stokes Phenomenon
Even when the series converges this is unwise: the tail needs to be majorized rigorously before the result can be guaranteed. … The transformations in §3.9 for summing slowly convergent series can also be very effective when applied to divergent asymptotic series. … Similar improvements are achievable by Aitken’s Δ 2 -process, Wynn’s ϵ -algorithm, and other acceleration transformations. … For example, extrapolated values may converge to an accurate value on one side of a Stokes line (§2.11(iv)), and converge to a quite inaccurate value on the other.
