I am trying to get a concrete answer on using limits to determine if two functions, $f(n)$ and $g(n)$, are Big-$O$, Big-$\Omega$, or Big-$\Theta$. I have looked at my book, my lecture notes, and have even done some online research but I still haven't found anything that gives me a solid yes or no. From what I understand about each of the three notations I have come up with 3 sets of rules:
$\displaystyle f(n) = O(g(n)) \implies \lim_{n \to \infty}\;\frac{f(n)}{g(n)} = 0$
$\displaystyle f(n) = \Omega(g(n)) \implies \lim_{n \to \infty}\;\frac{f(n)}{g(n)} = \infty$
$\displaystyle f(n) = \Theta(g(n)) \implies 0 < \; \lim_{n \to \infty} \; \frac{f(n)}{g(n)} \;< \infty$
The reason I am trying to get such a definite answer on this is because for a HW assignment we have to briefly explain why $\;f(n) = O(g(n))$, $\;f(n) = \Omega(g(n)),$ or $\;f(n) = \Theta(g(n))$. If I can just use those 3 rules above my explanations will be short, sweet, and to the point.
Any help or advice would be great appreciated
