Sorry, there are some mistakes. It seems there occurred an error with "+".
1. lim [a + bn/(n^2 - 1)]^n = e^2
2. lim [(n^2 + an + 1)/(n^2 + 3n - 2)]^n = e
3. lim [(an^2 + bn + 2)/(bn^2 + 4n + 3)]^[n^2/(n+1)] = 1/e
4. lim [sqrt(n^2 + n + 1) - sqrt(n^2 + an + 2)]^[(bn^2 + n)/(n+1)] = 1/e

lemon14,
a,b[\epsilon R?] just means a and b are real numbers. Wikipedia has a pretty good exposition on set theoretic notation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_set_theory
As for the rest, I'm assuming you are solving for a and b. I won't do your homework for you, but I did number 2 to give you an idea on the rest. Let me know if it helps. :)

Thank you Corrigan. It is helpful, indeed, although I haven't learned about L'Hopital's rule yet.
I am getting started with the rest of the exercises, but I'm not sure about the those with both a and b. Should I set a value for one of them in order to find the other one? I'm not asking you to solve me another exercise, for I know it takes you pretty much time, I just need a starting point.

L'hopital's rule says if lim u = lim v = 0 or infinity and lim (u / v) exists, then lim (u / v) =lim (du / dv). Where du and dv are the derivatives.
I haven't worked out the others, but when you have two variables, you'll probably get a in terms of b, from there it's just algebra. With all of these problems the thing to keep in mind is that $\lim_{n \to \infity} (1 + \frac{1}{n})^n = e$ .

wow that didn't display at all like I wanted it to. Okay, e is defined to be the limit as n approaches infinity of (1 + (1/n))^n.

For a mathematical display you should write math mathematical expression /math. "math" words must be between []
