How can I compute the following limit?
lim
The answer appears to be about 1.25.
Answer
This is the same as the one worked out in this question. We have
\Gamma(n+1,n) = \dfrac{n!}{e^n} \left(\sum_{k=0}^n \dfrac{n^k}{k!}\right) \sim \dfrac{n!}2 from this question.
Hence, we get that
\dfrac{e^n \Gamma(n+1,n)}{n^{n+1/2}} \sim \dfrac{e^n n!}{2n^{n+1/2}} \sim \dfrac{e^n \sqrt{2 \pi} n^{n+1/2}}{2n^{n+1/2} e^n} = \sqrt{\dfrac{\pi}2}
As I have in the comments, the first term can be thrown away. Hence, the limit is \sqrt{\dfrac{\pi}2} \approx 1.25
