Question Number 3564 by Yozzii last updated on 15/Dec/15
Test for convergence:  (1) Σ_(n=10) ^∞ (2^(ln(lnn)) /(nlnn))  (2)Σ_(n=2) ^∞ (1/(n(lnn)^p )) (two cases of p to look at)  (3)Σ_(n=2) ^∞ (((−1)^n (√n))/(lnn))  (4)Σ_(n=1) ^∞ ((10^n n)/((2n+1)!))  (5)Σ_(n=1) ^∞ ((n!)/n^n )  This post is my attempt to adhere to  the common agreement on infinite  series studying. Have fun!

Find sum or only check for convergence?

Do as you please, but I only asked   about convergence. If a question  sparks further questions then fantastic!

5. a_n =((n!)/n^n ), a_(n+1) =(((n+1)!)/((n+1)^(n+1) ))  (a_(n+1) /a_n )=(((n+1)!n^n )/(n!(n+1)^(n+1) ))=(((n+1)n^n )/((n+1)(n+1)^n ))=((n/(1+n)))^n   lim_(n→∞) ((n/(1+n)))^n =lim_(x→0) (((1/x)/(1+1/x)))^(1/x) =lim_(x→0) ((1/(1+x)))^(1/x)   y=((1/(1+x)))^(1/x) ⇒ln y=−((ln (1+x))/x)  lim_(x→0)  ln y=lim_(x→0) −((1/(1+x))/1)=−1  lim_(x→0)  ((1/(1+x)))^(1/x) =(1/e)  (1/e)<1, hence by ratio test series converges.
$$\mathrm{5}.\:{a}_{{n}} =\frac{{n}!}{{n}^{{n}} },\:{a}_{{n}+\mathrm{1}} =\frac{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)!}{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{{n}+\mathrm{1}} } \\ $$$$\frac{{a}_{{n}+\mathrm{1}} }{{a}_{{n}} }=\frac{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)!{n}^{{n}} }{{n}!\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{{n}+\mathrm{1}} }=\frac{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right){n}^{{n}} }{\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{{n}} }=\left(\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{1}+{n}}\right)^{{n}} \\ $$$$\underset{{n}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{1}+{n}}\right)^{{n}} =\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}/{x}}{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{1}/{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{1}/{x}} =\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{1}/{x}} \\ $$$${y}=\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{1}/{x}} \Rightarrow\mathrm{ln}\:{y}=−\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:\left(\mathrm{1}+{x}\right)}{{x}} \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\mathrm{ln}\:{y}=\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}−\frac{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+{x}}}{\mathrm{1}}=−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}+{x}}\right)^{\mathrm{1}/{x}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{e}}<\mathrm{1},\:\mathrm{hence}\:\mathrm{by}\:\mathrm{ratio}\:\mathrm{test}\:\mathrm{series}\:\mathrm{converges}. \\ $$

4. a_n =((10^n n)/((2n+1)!)) ⇒  (a_(n+1) /a_n )=((10(n+1))/(n(2n+2)(2n+3)))  lim_(n→∞)  ((10(n+1))/(n(2n+2)(2n+3)))=0  series converges
$$\mathrm{4}.\:{a}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{10}^{{n}} {n}}{\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)!}\:\Rightarrow\:\:\frac{{a}_{{n}+\mathrm{1}} }{{a}_{{n}} }=\frac{\mathrm{10}\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{{n}\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{2}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{3}\right)} \\ $$$$\underset{{n}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{\mathrm{10}\left({n}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{{n}\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{2}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{3}\right)}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{series}\:\mathrm{converges} \\ $$

3. a_n =(((−1)^n (√n))/(ln n))  Ratio test, r_n = ((√(n+1))/(ln (n+1)))×((ln n)/( (√n)))  =(√(1+(1/n)))×((ln n)/(ln n+1))  lim_(n→0) r_n =1 (inconclusive)  lim_(n→∞) ∣a_n ∣=lim_(n→∞)  ((√n)/(ln n))=(∞/∞)  lim_(n→∞) ∣a_n ∣=lim_(n→∞)  ((√n)/(ln n))=lim_(n→∞) (n/(2(√n)))=∞  series diverges.
