0^n =lim_(x→0^+ )   x^n   =lim_(x→0^+ )   e^(nlogx)   but  lim_(x→0^+ )   nlogx =−∞     (n>0)  ⇒0^n =e^(−∞)  =0
$$\mathrm{0}^{{n}} ={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}^{+} } \:\:{x}^{{n}} \\ $$$$={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}^{+} } \:\:{e}^{{nlogx}} \:\:{but} \\ $$$${lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{0}^{+} } \:\:{nlogx}\:=−\infty\:\:\:\:\:\left({n}>\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{0}^{{n}} ={e}^{−\infty} \:=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

0^n =0;n=1  0^n =0.0^(n−1) =0;∀n≥2  for n≥2;n−1≥1⇒0^(n−1)  is defined   0.0^(n−1) =0   ⇒∀n≥1 0^n =0
$$\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}} =\mathrm{0};\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}} =\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}−\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{0};\forall\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{2};\mathrm{n}−\mathrm{1}\geqslant\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}−\mathrm{1}} \:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{defined}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}−\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{0}\: \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\forall\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{0}^{\mathrm{n}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
