Topic: Proving a limit
Michał Mrugała (Sep 29 2022 at 13:55):
Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble finding the relevant lemmas in mathlib to prove the following limit:
example {c : ℝ} (hc : 0 < c) : filter.tendsto (λ n : ℕ, (1 + (n : ℝ)*c)^(1 / (n : ℝ))) filter.at_top (nhds 1) := sorry
I've previously proven:
example {N : ℝ} (hN : 0 < N) : filter.tendsto (λ n : ℕ, N ^ (1 / (n : ℝ))) filter.at_top (nhds 1) := sorry
Would anyone have an idea for how to deal with this?

Have you tried combining docs#filter.tendsto.const_add and docs#filter.tendsto.mul_const ?
Michał Mrugała (Sep 29 2022 at 14:03):
I can't see how these two lemmas would be helpful in this case, since addition and multiplication happens before introducing the exponent.
Filippo A. E. Nuccio (Sep 29 2022 at 14:11):
Ah, sorry, I have not seen you also had an exponent. Does docs#filter.tendsto.of_tendsto_comp help, together with the above two?
Michał Mrugała (Sep 29 2022 at 14:20):
I'd be surprised, since the expression we're applying the exponent to diverges.
Heather Macbeth (Sep 29 2022 at 14:26):
You can probably use docs#tendsto_rpow_div_mul_add composed with the continuity of a linear function and the nat-to-real coercion.
