Abstract

For functionsg(z) satisfying a slowly varying condition in the complex plane, we find asymptotics for the Taylor coefficients of the function[formula]whenα>0. As applications we find asymptotics for the number of permutations with cycle lengths all lying in a given setS, and for the number having unique cycle lengths.
