In general, for m >= 0, Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^(n-k) * k! * k^(m*n) * Stirling1(n,k) ~ c * r^(m*n) * (1 + r*exp(m/r))^n * n^((m+1)*n + 1/2) / exp((m+1)*n), where r is the real root of the equation LambertW(-1, -r*exp(-r)) = -r - exp(-m/r) and c is a constant (depending only on m). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 04 2022
