What is the limit as x approaches ∞ in the gamma function? Does it even exist?
1 Answer
Explanation:
Let's remember what the Gamma function is defined as.
If we take the limit as
As you can see, the integral
This means that the Gamma function becomes arbitrarily large as
Another way to check this is by assuming
For integer
If we substitute
One final way to see that
This is what it looks like:
graph{(x-1)! [-10, 10, -1, 10]}
As you can see, it grows without bound.
