Let J = a = 2 ∑ ∞ ( n → ∞ lim a ! g n ( f n ( a ) ) )
And I = n → ∞ lim g n ( f n ( a ) ) = n → ∞ lim ( ∫ 0 1 ( 1 − x a ) n d x ) 1 / n = n → ∞ lim ( a 1 ) 1 / n ( Γ ( n + 1 + a 1 ) Γ ( n + 1 ) Γ ( 1 / a ) ) 1 / n = n → ∞ lim ( Γ ( n + 1 + a 1 ) Γ ( n + 1 ) Γ ( 1 / a ) ) 1 / n = exp ( n → ∞ lim n ln ( Γ ( n + 1 ) ) + ln ( Γ ( 1 / a ) ) − ln ( Γ ( n + 1 + a 1 ) ) )
Applying L'Hospital rule we get I = exp ( n → ∞ lim ( ψ ( n + 1 ) − ψ ( n + 1 + a 1 ) ) )
But for large x We have ψ ( x ) ∼ ln ( x )
Hence we get I = exp ( n → ∞ lim ( ln ( n + 1 ) − ln ( n + 1 + 1 / a ) ) ) = 1
Hence J = a = 2 ∑ ∞ a ! 1 = e − 2
