$$\int_{0}^{\pi}(sinx)^{2n-2k+1}e^{acosx}dx$$ To avoid writing n-k all the times let v=n-k. $$u=cosx \implies du=-sinxdx$$ $$\int_{-1}^{+1}(1-u^2)^{v} e^{au}du$$ Split the integral at 0 and we have, $$2\int_{0}^{1}(1-u^2)^{v}cosh(au)du$$ (Because $coshx=\frac{e^a+e^{-a}}{2}$) $t=u^{2}\implies dt=2udu$ $$\int_{0}^{1}(1-t)^{v}cosh(a\sqrt[2]{t})t^{\frac{-1}{2}}dt$$ Taylor series expansion of hyperbolic cosine gives us, $$cosh(x)=\sum_{z≥0}\frac{x^{2z}}{(2z)!}$$ Placing this in the integrand and bringing the summation outside the integrand, $$\sum_{z≥0}(\frac{a^2z}{(2z)!}\int_{0}^{1}(1-t)^{(v+1)-1}t^{(z+1)-1}dt)$$ $$\sum_{z≥0}\frac{a^2z(B(z+1,v+1))}{(2z)!}$$ Taking certain values of v,a we can calculate the value of integrand by using properties of beta function. $$B(x,y)=\frac{\Gamma(x)\Gamma(y)}{\Gamma(x+y)}$$ Having the values of $v,a\in\mathbb{Z}$ we can use the above the relation and simplify the summation.
