What is the growth rate of the products of binomial coefficients?
Question 1: Are the following empirically observed relationships true
$$
{n \choose 1^a}{n \choose 2^a}{n \choose 3^a}\cdots {n \choose m^a}
\sim \exp\bigg(\frac{2n^{1 + \frac{1}{a}}}{a+3}\bigg)
$$

Mean value of a function with binomial coefficients as weights
Is the following true?
Let $a$ be a positive integer and let $t_n$ be a sequence of numbers. We define the binomial mean of $t_n$
$$
\beta_{t_n,a} = \frac{1}{2^n t_n}\sum_{r^a \le n} \binom{n}{r^a}...

Bernoulli sum meets golden number
Let $B_n$ denote the Bernoulli numbers and let $\phi=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}2$ be the golden ratio.
I encountered the following infinite sum and would like to ask:

Asymptotic for binomial sums
Let $S(n, t) = \sum_{k = 0}^n {n \choose k} ^t$.
The task is to find asymptotic behavior of $S(n,5)$, $n \to \infty$.
Asymptotic for $S(n,0)$ and $S(n,1)$ is very simple.
For $S(n,2)$ we can use ...
