We know that ∑k∈Nλkk!=eλ. I'm interested in the convergence of S(n)=∑k∈N(λkk!)n
for some value of n.
The series general term ak=(λkk!)n converges for k≥1. Applying the comparison test of this series with exponential series
limk→+∞(λkk!)nλkk!=0
, we may conclude that the sequence converges; i.e. the series converges.
Numerically i tested the behavior for n→+∞ of S(n) and the series converges to 2.
Now, if there is no mistake in what I wrote before, I wan't to know if there is any way to calculate the value of convergence S? Is there any relation between S and e or eλ?
Answer
Let
S(n)(λ)=∞∑k=0λnk(k!)n.
Then
limn→∞S(n)(λ)={0if 0≤λ<1,2if 0≤λ=1,∞if λ>1.
Let's prove it. If 0≤λ<1 then
1≤S(n)(λ)=1+∞∑k=1λnk(k!)n≤1+∞∑k=1λnk=1+λn1−λn.
If λ>1 then
≤S(n)(λ)≥1+λn.
Finally, since k!≤2k if k≥4, we have
2≤S(n)(1)≤2+12n+16n+∞∑k=412nk=2+12n+16n+2−4n1−2−n.
