Whether the p-adic power series $\sum \frac{(n!)^n}{1+(n!)^{2n}} x^n$ converges p-adically

p-adic convergence:

The p-adic power series $\sum \frac{1}{n!} x^n$ is divergent.

But what about the p-adic power series $\sum \frac{(n!)^n}{1+(n!)^{2n}} x^n$?

Does it converge p-adically?

Answer:

we have $a_n=\frac{(n!)^n}{1+(n!)^{2n}} $.

Now,

$\left|\frac{(n!)^{n}}{1+(n!)^{2n}} \right|_p \sim \left|\frac{(n!)^{n}}{1} \right|_p=\left|(n!)^n \right|_p==p^{-n \ \text{ord}_p(n!)} \to 0$ as $ n \to \infty$.

Thus the p-adic power series $\sum \frac{(n!)^n}{1+(n!)^{2n}} x^n$ converges p-adically.

Is my calculation correct?

Please confirm me.

If my calculation is correct, how can I generalise the power series?

That means , how to extend the coefficient $\frac{(n!)^n}{1+(n!)^{2n}}$ into more general form ?
