COMMENT
|
The series arises in the asymptotic expansion of the Airy function A(x) for large |x| as Ai(x)~pi^(-1/2)/2*x^(-1/4)*exp(-z)*sum((-1)^k*c(k)*z^(-k),k=0..infinity), where z=2/3*x^(3/2). a(k) is the numerator of the fully canceled c(k).

FORMULA
|
a(k)=numer(product((2*l+1), l=k..3*k-1)/216^k/k!)
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(2)=385 because for k=2, product((2*l+1),l=k..3*k-1)/216^k/k! = 3465/23328 = 385/2592 and we take the numerator of the fully canceled fraction.
