Show that $\lim_{n\to\infty}n\left(n\ln{n}+\ln{\sqrt{2}}-n-\sum_{k=1}^n \ln{\left(k-\frac{1}{2}\right)}\right)=\frac{1}{24}$.
I am trying to show that
$$L=\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}n\left(n\ln{n}+\ln{\sqrt{2}}-n-\sum\limits_{k=1}^n \ln{\left(k-\frac{1}{2}\right)}\right)=\frac{1}{24}$$
Desmos strongly suggests that this is true,...

Infinite product of areas in a square, inscribed quarter-circle and line segments.
The diagram shows a square of area $An$ and an enclosed quarter-circle.
Line segments are drawn from the bottom-left vertex to points that are equally spaced along the quarter-circle.
The regions ...

What is a closed form of this limit? (product of areas in circle with parabolas)
I am looking for a closed form of
$L=\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}\prod\limits_{k=1}^n \left(\left(6+\frac{4n}{\pi}\left(\sin{\frac{\pi}{2n}}\right)\left(\cos{\frac{(2k-1)\pi}{2n}}\right)\right)^2-\left(\...
