Asymptotic expansions of Kummer hypergeometric functions with three asymptotic parameters $a$, $b$ and $z$ (2202.12857v4)

Abstract: In a paper \cite{Temme:2021:AKH} new asymptotic expansions are given for the Kummer functions $M(a,b,z)$ and $U(a,b+1,z)$ for large positive values of $a$ and $b$, with $z$ fixed and special attention for the case $a\sim b$. In this paper we extend the approach and also accept large values of $z$. The new expansions are valid when at least one of the parameters $a$, $b$, or $z$ is large. We provide numerical tables to show the performance of the expansions.
