Limit of a sequence

#1

Post by Tolaso J Kos »

Define the sequence $\{k_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ recursively as follows

$$k_0 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \quad , \quad k_{n+1}={\frac {1-{\sqrt {1-k_{n}^{2}}}}{1+{\sqrt {1-k_{n}^{2}}}}}$$

Evaluate the limit

$$\ell = \lim_{n \rightarrow + \infty} \left(\frac{4}{k_{n+1}}\right)^{2^{-n}}$$
Imagination is much more important than knowledge.
