Inverting a power series? ... Cornish Fisher

Hello In the derivation of the cornish fisher expansion, the following equation is obtained: $$ \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} b_n H_{n-1}(x_\alpha) = \sum_{j=1}^{\infty}\frac{(x_\alpha - z_\alpha)^j}{j!}H_{j- …

Inverting an asymptotic series

I have the first few terms of a series of the form, $y(x)=\ln(x)+x+a_0+\frac{a_1}{x}+\frac{a_2}{x^2}+\cdots$. Knowing that the inverse $x(y)$ exists, I am looking for method to write x in terms of …

power series of the reciprocal... does a recursive formula exist for the coefficients [closed]

Let $f(x)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } b_nx^n$ and $\frac{1}{f(x)}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } d_nx^n$. Then the coefficients of the reciprocal of $f(x)$ can be written down. The first few terms are: $d_0 = \frac …
