Conjectured generating-function structure of the coefficients c~2k1,m\tilde{c}_{2k-1,m}

Let aa, CC, and c~2k1,m\tilde{c}_{2k-1,m} be the parameters and coefficients in the asymptotic expansion, and let Pk,ml(t)P_{k,m}^l(t) be polynomials in tt. For l0l\geq0, define the falling factorial by

(m1)l=(m1)(m2)(ml),(m-1)_l=(m-1)(m-2)\cdots(m-l),

with (m1)0=1(m-1)_0=1.

Generating-structure conjecture. For mNm\in\mathbb{N},

c~2k1,m=(1)mk1Cmk2l=0k+1Pk,ml(a2)(m1)lCk+1l,\tilde{c}_{2k-1,m}=(-1)^{m-k-1}C^{m-k-2}\sum_{l=0}^{k+1}P_{k,m}^l(a^2)(m-1)_lC^{k+1-l},

where each Pk,ml(t)P_{k,m}^l(t) is a polynomial of degree k2\lfloor\frac{k}{2}\rfloor and has positive rational coefficients.

The formula is motivated by the pole structure of generating functions inferred from their recurrence relations. It has been checked against computed coefficients, but the supplied text does not establish it in general.
