Calculus Level 5

Define I n = 0 0 1 ( k = 1 n ( x k + 1 x k ) ) 2 d x 1 x 1 d x n x n I_n=\int_0^\infty \cdots \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{\left( \sum_{k=1}^n \left( x_k+\frac{1}{x_k}\right) \right)^2} \frac{dx_1}{x_1} \cdots \frac{dx_n}{x_n}

If the limit lim n I n n ! \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{I_n}{n!}

is equal to A e B γ C \dfrac{Ae^{-B\gamma}}{C} for positive integers A , B , C A,B,C and coprime integers A , C A,C ,find A + B + C A+B+C . If the limit diverges enter 0 0 .

Notation : γ \gamma denotes the Euler Mascheroni constant.

No, I guess it's OK. Plenty of problems are reposted, and there's been plenty of time since this one last saw daylight. I wasn't going to retype my solution, so I just referenced the question's previous appearance.

Without access to the paper, it would be pretty tough to answer this question, though
