TLDR
In this paper, the authors discuss five topics of current interest in asymptotic analysis: the use of probabilistic methods to estimate the growth of combinatorial sequences, asymPTotic methods in the theory of random walks, the estimation of solutions of difference equations, asmptotic expansions in generalized scales, and the computation by asymptonotic methods of distributions whose moments are known.

Asymptotic enumeration methods

TL;DR: In this article, the saddle point and large singularities of analytic functions are used for graphical enumeration, including implicit functions, recurrences, and combinations of methods, which are related to our work.

Painleve´-type differential equations for the recurrence coefficients of semi-classical orthogonal polynomials

TL;DR: In this paper, the recurrence coefficients of semi-classical orthogonal polynomials related to a weight function w such that w/w is a rational function were shown to be solutions of nonlinear differential equations with respect to a well-chosen parameter.

Freud's equations for orthogonal polynomials as discrete Painlevé equations

TL;DR: In this article, the orthogonal polynomials with respect to an exponential weight function w(x) = exp(P(x)) were considered and the related equations for the recurrence coefficients have been explored by many people, starting essentially with Laguerre [49], in order to study special continued fractions, recurrence relations, and various asymptotic expansions.

The Distribution of heights of binary trees and other simple trees

TL;DR: The number of binary trees of fixed size and given height is estimated asymptotically near the peak of the distribution and a local limit theorem with convergence to a theta law is established.
