For polynomial $g(x)$ satisfying $(g(a))^2+(g'(a))^2=0$, evaluate $lim_{xto...

$begingroup$



If $g(x)$ is a polynomial function and



$$(g(alpha))^2+(g'(alpha))^2=0$$ then evaluate



$$displaystyle lim_{xrightarrow alpha}frac{g(x)}{g'(x)}bigglfloor frac{g'(x)}{g(x)}biggrfloor $$




Try: from
$$(g(alpha))^2+(g'(alpha))^2=0quadimpliesquad g(alpha)=g'(alpha) = 0 tag{1}$$



means polynomial $g(x)=0$ has a repeated root, $x=alpha$.
Using
$$frac{g'(x)}{g(x)}-1<bigglfloorfrac{g'(x)}{g(x)}biggrfloor leq frac{g'(x)}{g(x)} tag{2}$$



So
$$lim_{xrightarrow alpha}bigg(frac{g'(x)}{g(x)}-1bigg)frac{g(x)}{g'(x)}<lim_{xrightarrow alpha}bigglfloorfrac{g'(x)}{g(x)}biggrfloor frac{g(x)}{g'(x)}leq lim_{xrightarrow alpha}frac{g'(x)}{g(x)} frac{g(x)}{g'(x)} tag{3}$$



with Squeeze Theorem, the limit must be equal to $1$.



But I have a doubt for left side how can I prove
$$displaystyle lim_{xrightarrow alpha}frac{g(x)}{g'(x)} = 0 tag{4}$$



Could some help me to explain it? Thanks.

    Okay, what is an antiderivative $H$ for $G=frac{g’}{g}$? What kind of behavior has $H$ in a neighborhood of $alpha$? And what kind of behavior can $G$ have around $alpha$ that is compatible with the behavior of $H$? Alternatively, you can try and use Taylor expansion around $alpha$ to get equivalents for $g’(x)$ and $g(x)$.

$lim_{xrightarrow a} frac{g(x)}{g'(x)}=0$



You can apply L'Hospital's Rule, and get: $ lim_{xrightarrow a} frac{g(x)}{g'(x)}=lim_{xrightarrow a} frac{g'(x)}{g''(x)}$



if $g''(a)neq 0$ you are done, otherwise you can keep going until you get $ lim_{xrightarrow a} frac{g^{(n)}(x)}{g^{(n+1)}(x)}=lim_{xrightarrow a} frac{g^{(n)}}{c}=frac{0}{c}$ when $c neq 0$.



All this is true if $g^{(k)}(x)neq 0$ for every $x neq a$ around $a$.



But let say for example $forall xin Bbb R: g(x)=0$ then the limit you are asking for is not defined.
