Proof of $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty} \frac{a^n}{n!}=0$ $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty} \frac{a^n}{n!}=0$
how to prove this one since L'Hospital Theorem cannot be used with factorial?
 A: Hint. Let $N\geq |a|$, then for $n>N$, we have that
\begin{align*}
0\leq \frac{|a|^n}{n!}&=\frac{|a|}{n}\cdot \frac{|a|^{n-N-1}}{(n-1)\cdots (N+1)}\cdot \frac{|a|^{N}}{N!}\\
&\leq \frac{|a|}{n}\cdot \left(\frac{|a|}{N+1}\right)^{n-N-1}\cdot \frac{|a|^{N}}{N!}\\
&\leq \frac{|a|}{n}\cdot \frac{|a|^{N}}{N!}
\end{align*}
then apply the Squeeze Theorem as $n\to \infty$.
A: Stirling: $n! \sim (\frac{n}{e})^n \sqrt{2\pi n}$
$\frac{a^n}{n!} \sim \frac{a^n e^n}{n^n\sqrt{2\pi n}} = (\frac{a\times e}{n})^n \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi n}} = \exp(n \ln(\frac{a\times e}{n})) \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi n}} \rightarrow 0$
A: $$\frac{a^n}{n!} = \frac{a^k}{k!}\cdot \frac{a^{n-k}}{(k+1)\cdot(k+2)\cdots n!}\leq C\cdot\frac{a^{n-k}}{(a+1)^{n-k}}$$
for some constant $c$ and a large enough value of $k$ (i.e., a value of $k$ such that $k>a$).
A: One can also show by D'Alembert's criterion criterion that the series $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{a^n}{n!}$$ converges, so the limit of the summand must be zero.
(This is rather a funny fact than a real solution, since the technique used in the proof of the criterion can be used directly to prove that the limit is zero).
A: If we apply the ratio test, we find that
$$
\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{a^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}\cdot \frac{n!}{a^n} = \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{a}{n+1} = 0
$$
Typically, we use this to deduce that $\sum \frac{a^n}{n!}$ converges.  However, it is certainly enough to deduce that $\frac{a^n}{n!} \to 0$, since this is a requirement for the above convergence.
A: $$0<\left| \frac { { a }^{ n } }{ n! }  \right| =\frac { \left| a \right|  }{ 1 } \frac { \left| a \right|  }{ 2 } \frac { \left| a \right|  }{ 3 } ...\frac { \left| a \right|  }{ m } \quad \frac { \left| a \right|  }{ (m+1) } ...\frac { \left| a \right|  }{ n } \le \frac { \left| { a }^{ m } \right|  }{ m! } { \left( \frac { \left| a \right|  }{ m+1 }  \right)  }^{ n-m }<\varepsilon \\ $$
for every $\forall \varepsilon >0$ and $m+1 >\left|a\right|$
