Let A={(x,y):0≤x,y<1}A=\{(x,y):0\leq x,y<1\}. For (x,y)∈A(x,y)\in A, let S(x,y)=∑12≤mn≤2xmyn,S(x,y) = \sum_{\frac{1}{2}\leq \frac{m}{n}\leq 2} x^m y^n, where the sum ranges over all pairs (m,n)(m,n) of positive integers satisfying the indicated inequalities. Evaluate lim⁡(x,y)→(1,1),(x,y)∈A(1−xy2)(1−x2y)S(x,y).\lim_{(x,y)\rightarrow (1,1), (x,y)\in A} (1-xy^2)(1-x^2y)S(x,y).
