Calculate the value $\lim_{n\to \infty}\frac{\sum_{j=1}^n \sum_{k=1}^n k^{1/k^j}}{\sqrt[n]{(\sum_{j=1}^n j!)\sum_{j=1}^n j^n}}$
As in title, I want to calculate the following value $$\lim_{n\to \infty}\frac{\sum_{j=1}^n \sum_{k=1}^n k^{1/k^j}}{\sqrt[n]{(\sum_{j=1}^n j!)\sum_{j=1}^n j^n}}.$$
Here is my attempt:

Evaluate $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} (-1)^{n+1} H_n \left( \frac{1}{n+1} - \frac{1}{n+3} + \frac{1}{n+5} - \ldots \right)$
$$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} (-1)^{n+1} H_n \left( \frac{1}{n+1} - \frac{1}{n+3} + \frac{1}{n+5} - \ldots \right) = \frac{\pi}{16} \cdot \log(2) + \frac{3}{16} \cdot \log(2) - \frac{\pi^2}{192}$$

Closed form for $f_k(y)$
The question is quite simple. Given
$$\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(x+y)^k$$
We can re-write it in terms as a polynomial in $x$, with coefficients being polynomials in $y$, i.e
$$\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(x+y)^k = \sum_{k=...

where is the mistake in my calculations of $\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum\limits_{k=1 }^n \frac{a_k}{(n+1-k)(n+2-k)}= \lim_{n\to \infty}a_n$
if $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty}a_n =a$ prove that $\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum\limits_{k=1 }^n \frac{a_k}{(n+1-k)(n+2-k)}= a$
define $b_{n-1}= a_n - a_{n-1}$ then $\lim\limits_{n \to \...
