Limit of a sequence involving root of a factorial: limntoinftyfracnsqrt[n]n!





I need to check if
limnnnn!

converges or not. Additionally, I wanted to show that the sequence is monotonically increasing in n and so limit exists. Any help is appreciated. I had tried taking log and manipulating the sequence but I could not prove monotonicity this way.


Answer



Use Stirling's approximation:
n!2πn(ne)n

and you'll get
limnn(n!)1/n=limnn(2πn(ne)n)1/n=limnn(2πn)1/2n(ne)=limne(2πn)1/2n=e,


because limn(2πn)1/2n=limnn1/n=1.
