Calculate $lim_{n to infty} int_{mathbb{R_{+}}} exp((cos^n x) -x) dlambda(x)$












3












$begingroup$


the exponential function being increasing we have $| exp((cos^n x) -x)| leq exp(1 -x) in L^1([0,+infty[) $



so $x to exp((cos^n x) -x)$ is Riemann absolutely convergent therefore



$l = lim_{n to infty} int_{mathbb{R_{+}}} exp((cos x^n) -x) dlambda(x) =lim_{n to infty} int_{0}^{+infty} exp((cos^n x) -x) dx $



by the dominated convergence theorem :



$l = int_{0}^{+infty} lim_{n to infty} exp((cos^n x) -x) dx$



I don't know how to deal with this limit, as $x$ is in $mathbb{R_{+}}$ I can't even use a taylor expression around $0$



any hints ?

          For $x in mathbb R_+ setminus{kpi + pi/2 ; k in mathbb N}$ you have:



          $$exp((cos^n x) -x) to e^{-x}$$ as $n to infty$ and



          $$0 le exp((cos^n x) -x) le e cdot e^{-x}$$ for all $x in mathbb R_+$.



          As ${kpi + pi/2 ; k in mathbb N}$ is a null set (for Lebesgue measure) and $int_{mathbb R_+} e^{-x} dx$ converges, you can apply Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem and conclude that



          $$lim_{n to infty} int_{mathbb{R_{+}}} exp((cos^n x) -x) dlambda(x) = int_{mathbb R_+} e^{-x} dx$$

            $begingroup$

            Notice that as $n to infty$ all values of $cos^n(x)$ go to zero except the exact points at which $cos(x)=1$ which have infinitesimally small width so have a value of zero when integrating over them. The integral then becomes simply the integral of $exp(-x)$.
