COMMENTS
Generally (de Bruijn, 1958), S(s,n) is asymptotic to (2*cos(Pi/(2*s)))^(2*n*s+s-1)*2^(2-s)*(Pi*n)^((1-s)/2)*s^(-1/2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 09 2013
Andrews (1988) on page 162 states "If, however, we resort to the theory of hypergeometric series, we find that, for example, S(5,n) = - _5F_4[-2n,-2n,-2n,-2n,-2n 1,1,1,1 ; 1]". - Michael Somos, Jul 24 2013

FORMULA
E.g.f.: Sum(n>=0,I^n*x^n/n!^5) * Sum(n>=0,(-I)^n*x^n/n!^5) = Sum(n>=0,a(n)*x^(2*n)/n!^5) where I^2=-1. - Paul D. Hanna, Dec 21 2011
a(n) ~ (5+sqrt(5))^(5*n+2)/(sqrt(5)*Pi^2*n^2*2^(5*(n+1))). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 09 2013
Recurrence: n^4*(2*n - 1)^2*(220*n^3 - 858*n^2 + 1119*n - 488)*a(n) = 5*(110000*n^9 - 759000*n^8 + 2252400*n^7 - 3766690*n^6 + 3908325*n^5 - 2609510*n^4 + 1122418*n^3 - 300699*n^2 + 45738*n - 3024)*a(n-1) - 5*(2*n - 3)^2*(5*n - 8)*(5*n - 7)*(5*n - 6)*(5*n - 4)*(220*n^3 - 198*n^2 + 63*n - 7)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 27 2016
