VN-TST 1999 Problem 4

  • Day 2

Let a sequence of positive reals {un}n=1∞\{u_n\}^{\infty}_{n=1} be given. For every positive integer nn , let knk_n be the least positive integer satisfying:

∑i=1kn1i≥∑i=1nui.\sum^{k_n}_{i=1} \frac{1}{i} \geq \sum^n_{i=1} u_i.

Show that the sequence {kn+1kn}\left\{\frac{k_{n+1}}{k_n}\right\} has finite limit if and only if {un}\{u_n\} does.
