I am facing difficulty with the following limit.
limn→∞((n0).(n1)…(nn))1n(n+1)
I tried to take log both sides but i couldnot simplify the resulting expression .
Please help in this regard.thanks.
Answer
We see that
n∏k=0(nk)=n!n+1∏nk=0k!2=n!n+1(∏nk=0kn+1−k)2=H(n)2n!n+1.
where H(n)=∏nk=1kk. Now we see that
log(H(n))=n∑k=1klog(k)≥∫n1xlog(x)dx=n22log(n)−n24
as well as
log(H(n))=n∑k=1klog(k)≤∫n+11xlog(x)dx=(n+1)22log(n+1)−(n+1)24
This gives
−log(n)2(n+1)−n4(n+1)≤1n(n+1)log(H(n))−12log(n)=1n(n+1)log(H(n))−12log(n+1)+12log(1+1/n)≤log(n+1)2n−n+14n+12log(1+1/n).
As both the lower and the upper bound tend to −14 as n→∞ we get by the squeeze theorem
limn→∞[1n(n+1)log(H(n))−12log(n)]=−14⟺limn→∞H(n)1n(n+1)√n=e−14
Using Stirlings approximation we notice
limn→∞n!1nn=e−1
and thus
limn→∞[n∏k=0(nk)]1n(n+1)=limn→∞H(n)2n(n+1)n!1n=limn→∞(H(n)1n(n+1)√n)2(nn!1n)=(e−1/4)2⋅1e−1=√e
