I've come across a snag in a proof, and I've become a little exasperated by the following limit:
[itex]\displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \biggl(\frac{{| d |}^{np+p-1} |x|^{p-1}}{(p-1)!} \{(|x| + |\alpha_1|) \ldots (|x| + |\alpha_n|) \}^p\biggr)[/itex]
I've tried the squeeze rule, but an upper bound eludes me. I've only found the lower bound, which is just 0. I've tried to group together all of the powers of p, as follows:
[itex]\displaystyle \lim_{p\to\infty} \biggl(\frac{{| d x|}^{p-1}}{(p-1)!} \{|d|^n(|x| + |\alpha_1|) \ldots (|x| + |\alpha_n|) \}^p\biggr)[/itex]
and maybe use the fact that
tends to zero as p tends to infinity, since the bottom half rises faster than the top half. However, I'm stuck because I don't know how to go about this formally, or if this is the right way to go about it. I'd be really grateful if help was provided, and possibly a solution.
Thank you very very much in advance.
