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:

“An educational method that shall have liberty as its basis must intervene to help the child to a conquest of liberty. That is to say, his training must be such as shall help him to diminish as much as possible the social bonds which limit his activity.”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)

“Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
