Solution of the Differential Equation $y^{(k)}=e^{ay}$, Special Values of Bell Polynomials and $(k,a)$-Autonomous Coefficients

Abstract

In this paper special values of Bell polynomials are given by using the power series solution of the equation $y^{(k)}=e^{ay}$. In addition, complete and partial exponential autonomous functions, exponential autonomous polynomials, autonomous polynomials and $(k,a)$-autonomous coefficients are defined. Finally, we show the relationship between various numbers counting combinatorial objects and binomial coefficients, Stirling numbers of the second kind and autonomous coefficients.
