I have the following question. I was asked to compute the following limit: Let A1...Ak be positive numbers, does exist:
lim
My work:
W.L.O.G let A_1= \max{ A_1, ..., A_k}, so I have
A_1^n \leq A_1^n + ... A_k^n \leq kA_1^n
so that
A_1 = \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} (A_1^n)^{1/n} \leq \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(A_1^n + ... A_k^n)^{1/n} \leq \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} (kA_1^n)^{1/n} = kA_1
Can I do something else to sandwich the limit?
Answer
You have made a little mistake. Correction:
A_1 = \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} (A_1^n)^{1/n} \leq \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(A_1^n + ... A_k^n)^{1/n} \leq \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} (kA_1^n)^{1/n} = \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} A_1{\color{blue}{k^{1/n}}}=A_1
