It is well-known, as follows from the Stirling’s approximation
n! \sim \sqrt {2\pi n{{\left( {n/e} \right)}^n}}
, that
\root n \of {n!/n \to 1/e}
. A generalization of this limit is (11s· 22s· · · nns)1/ns+1 · n−1/(s+1) → e−1/(s+1)2 which was established by N. Schaumberger in 1989 (see [8]). The aim of this work is to establish a new generalization that is in fact an improvement of Schaumberger’s formula for a general sequence An of positive real numbers. All of the results are applied to some well-known sequences in mathematics, for example, for the prime numbers sequence and the sequence of perfect powers.
