Asymptotic expansions for Taylor coefficients of the composition of two functions

We give an asymptotic expansion for the Taylor coe±cients of L(P(z)) where L(z) is analytic in the open unit disc whose Taylor coe±cients vary `smoothly' and P(z) is a probability generating function. We show how this result applies to a variety of problems, amongst them obtaining the asymptotics of Bernoulli transforms and weighted renewal sequences.
