Measure theory integral

This is a qualifying exam practice question - so not being graded for homework purposes, just studying!



Calculate $lim_{n rightarrow infty} int_0^infty frac{x^n}{ x^{(n+3)}+1} dx$



I tried the following:



$lim_{n rightarrow infty} int_0^infty frac{x^n}{ x^{(n+3)}+1} , dx$ = $frac{d}{dn}int_0^infty int_0^inftyfrac{x^n}{ x^{(n+3)}+1}dn , dx$ = -$frac{d}{dn} int_0^infty frac{ln(x^3+1}{x^3 ln(x)} , dx$



Not really sure where to go from here, any advice would be appreciated!

    I'm trying to understand your thinking when you went from $lim_{ntoinfty}$ to $frac{d}{dn}int_0^infty dn$. I don't see how that could work.

Hint:



You have $$lim_n int_0^infty frac{x^n}{x^{n+3}+1} = lim_n int_0^1 frac{x^n}{x^{n+3}+1}+lim_n int_1^infty frac{x^n}{x^{n+3}+1}$$



Use on each term the dominated convergence theorem to get the limits inside. If $0<x<1$ then $x^nrightarrow 0$ so the first term is easy to calculate.



The second converges to $frac{1}{x^3}$ and then you need to evaluate $int_1^infty frac{1}{x^3} dx$.

    Hint. Note that
    $$int_0^{infty}frac{x^n}{ x^{n+3}+1},dx=int_0^{1}frac{x^n}{ x^{n+3}+1},dx+int_1^{infty}frac{dx}{x^3}-int_1^{infty}frac{dx}{x^3( x^{n+3}+1)},$$
    where
    $$0leq int_0^1frac{x^n}{ x^{n+3}+1},dx leq int_0^1 x^n ,dx=left[frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}right]_0^{1}=frac{1}{n+1},$$
    and
    $$0leq int_1^{infty}frac{dx}{x^3( x^{n+3}+1)}leq
    int_1^{infty}frac{1}{ x^{n+3}},dx=left[-frac{1}{(n+2)x^{n+2}}right]_1^{infty}=frac{1}{n+2}.$$
