Finding $limlimits_{n→∞}n^3(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}-nsqrt2)$












3














What is$$lim_{n→∞}n^3(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}-nsqrt2)?$$So it is$$lim_{n→∞}frac{n^3(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}})^2-(nsqrt{2})^2}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}=lim_{n→∞}frac{n^3(n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}-2n^2)}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}.$$
I do not know what to do next, because my resuts is $∞$ but the answer from book is $dfrac{1}{4sqrt{2}}$.

  • @maveric That's of course an effective method but we don't really need that on this case.

  • How can be your result $infty$ from here $$lim_{n→∞}frac{n^3(n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}-2n^2)}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}$$ Note that at the numerator we have an indeterminate form $infty-infty$ therefore you can't conclude form here.

  • @gimusi. Using the binomial expansion is a good way if you want to know how is approached the limit (this is just building the Taylor expansion). I hope and wish that we could have a discussion about this kind of problems one of these days. Cheers.

  • @ClaudeLeibovici Yes of course, I also like Taylor's very much but in that case I think that it suffices operate by agebraic methods also I think thet the OP is looking for such kind of solution. Anyway the suggestion is good as an alternative approach! Cheers

You only need to apply the trick twice, indeed we have that



$$sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}-nsqrt{2}=(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}-nsqrt{2})cdotfrac{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}=$$$$=frac{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}-2n^2}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}$$



and



$$frac{sqrt{n^4+1}-n^2}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}=frac{sqrt{n^4+1}-n^2}{sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2}}cdot frac{sqrt{n^4+1}+n^2}{sqrt{n^4+1}+n^2}=$$$$=frac{1}{(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}+nsqrt{2})(sqrt{n^4+1}+n^2)}$$



Can you conclude form here?

Let $1/n=h$



$$lim_{hto0^+}dfrac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+h^4}}-sqrt2}{h^4}$$



$$=lim_{hto0^+}dfrac{1+sqrt{1+h^4}-2}{h^4}cdotlim_{hto0^+}dfrac1{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+h^4}}+sqrt2}$$



$$=lim_{hto0^+}dfrac{1+h^4-1}{h^4}cdotlim_{hto0^+}dfrac1{sqrt{1+h^4}+1}cdotlim_{hto0^+}dfrac1{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+h^4}}+sqrt2}$$



$$=dfrac1{(sqrt1+1)(sqrt{1+sqrt1}+sqrt2)}$$

The expedite way:



$$sqrt{1+sqrt{1+n^{-4}}}=sqrt{1+1+dfrac12n^{-4}+o(n^{-4})}=sqrt2sqrt{1+dfrac14n^{-4}+o(n^{-4})}=sqrt2left(1+dfrac18n^{-4}+o(n^{-4})right)$$



and the limit is



$$frac{sqrt2}8.$$

    First replace $1/x=h$ to find



    $$L=lim_{n→∞}n^3(sqrt{n^2+sqrt{n^4+1}}-nsqrt2)=lim_{hto0^+}dfrac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+h^4}}-sqrt2}{h^4}$$



    Let $sqrt{1+sqrt{1+h^4}}=y+sqrt2implies1+sqrt{1+h^4}=(sqrt2+y)^2=2+2sqrt2y+y^2$



    $$1+h^4=(1+y(2sqrt2+y))^2=1+2y(2sqrt2+y)+y^2(2sqrt2+y)^2$$



    $$L=lim_{yto0}dfrac{1+2y(2sqrt2+y)+y^2(2sqrt2+y)^2-1}y=?$$

      Formally substitute $n=1/t$; if the function you get has a limit for $tto0^+$, then it is the same as the limit you are looking for. So consider
      $$
      lim_{tto0^+}frac{1}{t^3}left(
      sqrt{frac{1}{t^2}+sqrt{frac{1}{t^4}+1}}-frac{sqrt{2}}{t}
      right)=
      lim_{tto0^+}frac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+t^4}}-sqrt{2}}{t^4}
      $$
      Now the dependency is only on $t^4$, so the limit is the same as
      $$
      lim_{uto0^+}frac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}-sqrt{2}}{u}
      $$
      which is the derivative at $0$ of $f(u)=sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}$.




      Since $$f'(u)=frac{1}{2sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}}frac{1}{2sqrt{1+u}}$$ we have $$f'(0)=frac{1}{4sqrt{2}}$$

                      Formally substitute $n=1/t$; if the function you get has a limit for $tto0^+$, then it is the same as the limit you are looking for. So consider
                      $$
                      lim_{tto0^+}frac{1}{t^3}left(
                      sqrt{frac{1}{t^2}+sqrt{frac{1}{t^4}+1}}-frac{sqrt{2}}{t}
                      right)=
                      lim_{tto0^+}frac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+t^4}}-sqrt{2}}{t^4}
                      $$
                      Now the dependency is only on $t^4$, so the limit is the same as
                      $$
                      lim_{uto0^+}frac{sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}-sqrt{2}}{u}
                      $$
                      which is the derivative at $0$ of $f(u)=sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}$.




                      Since $$f'(u)=frac{1}{2sqrt{1+sqrt{1+u}}}frac{1}{2sqrt{1+u}}$$ we have $$f'(0)=frac{1}{4sqrt{2}}$$
