To find the limit:

$\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\ln(x)}{x^{1/x}}$

we can start by simplifying the expression. Let's take it step by step.

Step 1: Simplify the exponent term

Notice that $x^{1/x}$ is an expression involving an exponent. We can simplify it by taking the natural logarithm of both the numerator and the denominator separately.

Rewrite the denominator:

$x^{1/x} = e^{\frac{\ln(x)}{x}}$

As $x \to \infty$, the exponent $\frac{\ln(x)}{x}$ approaches 0, so:

$x^{1/x} \to e^0 = 1$

Thus, the limit looks like:

$\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\ln(x)}{x^{1/x}} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\ln(x)}{1} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \ln(x)$

which diverges to infinity.

Step 2: Apply L'Hopital's Rule

However, we may have made an assumption or overlooked some nuance. Let's go back to applying L'Hopital's Rule, which works in indeterminate forms of type $\frac{\infty}{\infty}$. The original form is $\frac{\ln(x)}{x^{1/x}}$, and as we just showed, both the numerator and denominator tend toward infinity, so we can apply L'Hopital’s Rule.

We differentiate the numerator and denominator separately.

1. Numerator: The derivative of $\ln(x)$ is $\frac{1}{x}$.
2. Denominator: The derivative of $x^{1/x}$ requires using the chain rule.

Let’s differentiate $x^{1/x} = e^{\frac{\ln(x)}{x}}$:

$\frac{d}{dx}(x^{1/x}) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(e^{\frac{\ln(x)}{x}}\right) = e^{\frac{\ln(x)}{x}} \cdot \frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{\ln(x)}{x}\right)$

Now, differentiate $\frac{\ln(x)}{x}$ using the quotient rule:

$\frac{d}{dx} \left(\frac{\ln(x)}{x}\right) = \frac{x \cdot \frac{1}{x} - \ln(x)}{x^2} = \frac{1 - \ln(x)}{x^2}$

Thus, the derivative of $x^{1/x}$ is:

$\frac{d}{dx} \left( x^{1/x} \right) = x^{1/x} \cdot \frac{1 - \ln(x)}{x^2}$

Now, applying L'Hopital's Rule:

$\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\ln(x)}{x^{1/x}} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\frac{1}{x}}{x^{1/x} \cdot \frac{1 - \ln(x)}{x^2}}$

As $x \to \infty$, this still leads to an indeterminate form, and further simplification or alternative methods might be needed.
