Corcino %J Turkish Journal of Analysis and Number Theory %D 2019 %R 10.12691/tjant-7-3-2 %X Some combinatorial properties of -Stirling numbers are proved. Moreover, two asymptotic formulas for -Stirling numbers of the first kind derived using different methods are discussed and corresponding asymptotic formulas for the -Stirling type numbers of the first kind are obtained as corollaries %U http://www.sciepub.com/TJANT/abstract/11103
