Dear Colleagues, when fooling around with MATHEMATICA I found: 0^\[Infinity] => 0, as expected; 0.9^\[Infinity] => 0, as expected; 2^\[Infinity] => Infinity, as expected; 1^\[Infinity] => Indeterminate, unexpected. Naively expected: 1. For which reason(s) is 1^\[Infinity] defined as Indeterminate? Best regards, Matthias Bode.
