Review text

The authors study the existence and explicit computation of an asymptotic expansion for the probability distribution of a binomial distribution on \(B(n,p^{(n)})\) for large \(n\) in the case of \(n\) admitting an expansion in powers of \({1/\sqrt{n}}\). In a certain sense the authors come back to the source of inspiration of Laplace for his method of expanding integrals of the type \[ I(n)= \int^{u_1}_{u_0} e^{uf(u)} g(u)\,du. \] For the entire collection see [Zbl 1063.00011].
