real analysis - Can I conclude that limxto0+fracx2efrac1x2cos(frac1x2)2 is infinite or it doesn't exists?



lim



My intuition is that the denominator goes to 0 faster and everything is non-negative, so the limit is positive infinity.



I cant think of elementary proof, l'Hopital doesn't help here, and I'm not sure if and how to use taylor.




WolframAlpha says it's complex infinity, but I can't understand why it doesn't just real positive infinity.



I've tried to use wolfram language to use the assumption that x is real, but couldn't get any result.


Answer



The limit\lim_{x\to0^+}\frac{x^2}{\exp\left(-\frac1{x^2}\right)}is indeed +\infty. Since \dfrac1{\cos^2\left(\frac1{x^2}\right)}\geqslant1 for each x (when it is defined), you are right: the limit is +\infty.
