COMMENT

From the Jin-Reidys paper: "In this paper we present the asymptotic enumeration of RNA structures with pseudoknots. We develop a general framework for the computation of exponential growth rate and the sub exponential factors for k-noncrossing RNA structures. Our results are based on the generating function for the number of k-noncrossing RNA pseudoknot structures, S_k(n)... where k-1 denotes the maximal size of sets of mutually intersecting bonds. We prove a functional equation for the generating function sum[n>= 0]S_k(n)z^n and obtain for k=2 and k=3 the analytic continuation and singular expansions, respectively. It is implicit in our results that for arbitrary k singular expansions exist and via transfer theorems of analytic combinatorics we obtain asymptotic expression for the coefficients. We explicitly derive the asymptotic expressions for 2- and 3-noncrossing RNA structures. Our main result is the derivation of the formula S_3(n) ~ ((10.4724 * 4!/(n(n-1)...(n-4))) * ((5+sqrt(21))/2})^n."

The zeros at 15, 16 and 17 digits after the decimal point allow for a good rational approximation. The continued fraction is [4,1,3,1,3,1,3, ...] = 4 + 1/(1+ 1/(3+ 1/(1+ 1/(3+ 1/(1+ 1/(3+ 1(/1+ ...
