title = "Exponential Asymptotics",
abstract = "Significant developments have occurred recently in the general theory of asymptotic expansions. These developments include smoothing of the Stokes phenomenon (M. V. Berry), uniform exponentially-improved asymptotic expansions (F. W. J. Olver), superasymptotics and hyperasymp- totics (M. V. Berry and C. J. Howls). In this lecture, I will use the Airy function to give a flavor of each of these new concepts in what is now known as “exponential asymptotics” or “asymptotics beyond all orders” (M. D. Kruskal and H. Segur). My approach is based on a modified version of the steepest-descent method introduced by Berry and Howls in 1991.",
