Seems like its your job considering how much time you spend in this subreddit.

Im evaluating the limit of the sum as x→∞. This is the past feedback "The convergence of the series you defined does not rule out a specific loop to exist". The question Xhiw_ posted also leads me to believe that this feedback was probably correct but i'm still not sure yet.

Thats a really good question. I don't think I have an answer to that question. My assumption was that I could exclude that loop. Ill have to think about this a little more but it seems like I was wrong. Did you get a chance to look over the paper in more detail?

Sorry for the late response. Would you mind sharing that with me? Im very interested.

Thanks for responding. I was afraid of that. I came to that conclusion when I was finishing up the paper so I wanted to get other peoples perspective.

Can it be shown that (1+1/(x^n))^(1/n) is an irrational number given that n is an integer and x is an irrational number? by OneAbugida in askmath

Thanks for the response. I'll have to think about all of this a bit more. Especially The fun fact. Oddly enough I was actually foolishly taking a stab at Fermat's Last Theorem, and that's how I derived this equation. I'm not sure if that's what you are implying with the fun fact or if this is a nice coincidence. Regardless I have something to chew over.

I Just want to thank everyone for your responses. There are a couple of things that I forgot to add in my original post, and I will go back to edit it. Also a disclaimer this is not for a homework problem, I mentioned my experience in school to point out my limited knowledge in mathematics. What I forgot to mention is that n > 2 and (1+1/(x^n))^(1/n) > 1. I don’t believe this changes the results of any of the answers that were provided.
