<a href="https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/3910272/what-is-the-jacobi-anger-expansion-of-the-kth-functional-iterate-of-the-sine">Cross-post</a> from MSE. The Jacobi-Anger <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi%E2%80%93Anger_expansion">expansion</a> gives expressions for functional iterates of trigonometric functions in terms of Bessel functions. For instance, we have $$\sin(z \sin(\theta)) = 2 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} J_{2n-1} (z) \sin[(2n-1)\theta] .$$ If we plug in $z=1$, we obtain an expression for $\sin(\sin(\theta)) := \sin^{[2]}(\theta)$. We might call this the second functional iterate of the sine function. Moreover, we have $\sin^{[3]}(\theta) = \sin(\sin(\sin(\theta))) $, and $\sin^{[k]}(\theta)$ is the function in which there are $k-1$ compositions of the sine function with itself (when $k\geq2$). **Question**: Are Jacobi-Anger expansions for the $k$'th functional iterate -- $\sin^{[k]}(\theta)$ -- also known, for arbitrary $k>2$?
