Calculate $lim_{nrightarrow infty }left(frac{n^{2}+1}{n+1}right)^{tfrac{n+1}{n^{2}+1}}$
$begingroup$
$$lim_{nrightarrow infty }left(frac{n^{2}+1}{n+1}right)^{tfrac{n+1}{n^{2}+1}}$$
I tried to use $f^{g}=e^{g ln f}$ and I got $e^{tfrac{n+1}{n^{2}+1}ln left(tfrac{n^2+1}{n+1} right)}$. How to continue ?

Write $m=frac{n^2+1}{n+1}$, so $mtoinfty$ as $ntoinfty$. Your limit is $$lim_{mtoinfty}expfrac{ln m}{m}=explim_{mtoinfty}frac{ln m}{m}=exp 0=1.$$

$$a_n=left(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)^{tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}implies log(a_n)={tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}logleft(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)$$ Now, use Taylor expansions for large $n$
$$logleft(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)=log
left({n}right)-frac{b}{n}+frac{a+frac{b^2}{2}}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$
$${tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}=frac{1}{n}+frac{c}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$
$$log(a_n)=frac{log left({n}right)}{n}+frac{-b+c log
left({n}right)}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$ Continuing with Taylor
$$a_n=e^{log(a_n)}=1+frac{log left({n}right)}{n}+frac{2 left(-b+c log
left({n}right)right)+log ^2left({n}right)}{2
n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$

Making the problem more general, consider
$$a_n=left(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)^{tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}implies log(a_n)={tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}logleft(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)$$ Now, use Taylor expansions for large $n$
$$logleft(frac{n^{2}+a}{n+b}right)=log
left({n}right)-frac{b}{n}+frac{a+frac{b^2}{2}}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$
$${tfrac{n+c}{n^{2}+d}}=frac{1}{n}+frac{c}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$
$$log(a_n)=frac{log left({n}right)}{n}+frac{-b+c log
left({n}right)}{n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$ Continuing with Taylor
$$a_n=e^{log(a_n)}=1+frac{log left({n}right)}{n}+frac{2 left(-b+c log
left({n}right)right)+log ^2left({n}right)}{2
n^2}+Oleft(frac{1}{n^3}right)$$
