Is this the expansion for any known function?

The expansion is $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{x^n}{n!(n-1)!}\left[c(1+c)\dots((n-1)^2+c)\right]$$ So the first 3 terms are $cx$, $\dfrac{c(1+c)}{2}x^2$, $\dfrac{c(1+c)(4+c)}{12}x^3$.

Conditions and correct interpretation of Borel summation

Hello to the community. In my line of research (theoretical particle physics) it is customary to apply the strategy of Borel summation to infinite power series in order to find closed forms and/or ...

Large $x$ power series for $e^{-\alpha x}$

Let $\alpha>0$, then do there exist continuous functions $c_n\colon\mathbb R^+\to\mathbb R$ and $\gamma\colon\mathbb R^+\to\mathbb R$ such that $\lim_{x\to\infty}\gamma\left(x\right)=0$ and the ...

Asymptotic expansion of $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{H_n}{n!}z^n$ for $z\to\infty$

What is the asymptotic expansion of $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{H_n}{n!}z^n$ for $z\to\infty$ where $H_n=\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k}$? I thought of using the Euler-Mascheroni constant, the fact that $\gamma=\...

What is the asymptotic expansion of a function defined by a converging power series?

Given an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{a_n}{n!}z^n$, how could one go about finding the asymptotic expansion of $f(z)$ for $z\to\infty$? In particular given $g(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty ...

Roots of partial sum of power series

Consider the power series $$ \sqrt{1+z} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \left( \begin{array}{c} \frac{1}{2} \\ k \end{array} \right) z^k. $$ I am interested in characterizing the roots of the partial sum $$ s_n(z)...

Asymptotics of Hypergeometric $_2F_1(a;b;c;z)$ for large $|z| \to \infty$?

I found this list of asymptotics of the Gauss Hypergeometric function $_2F_1(a;b;c;z)$ here on Wolfram's site for large $|z| \to \infty$ In particular there is a general formula for $|z| \to \infty$ $...

Analytic Continuation with Real Coefficients

I have an interesting problem that I cannot make progress on over several days. It is as follows: Suppose $f(z) = \sum a_nz^n$ is analytic around $0$ such that $a_n \geq 0$ for all $n$, in ...

Technique for constructing an entire function satisfying a given growth condition

How can I construct an entire function whose growth rate at infinity satisfies $$ \lim_{r \to \infty} \frac{\log M(r)}{\sqrt {r}} =1$$ where $M(r) = \max_{|z|=r} |f(z)|$? Based on the above limit,...

Trying to find more information about "Darboux's method/theorem" on coefficients of an analytic function

My supervisor briefly showed me a statement of something she called "Darboux's theorem," but I am having trouble finding more information about it on the internet. Here is what I have written down (...
