![Because the given serious converges to value 1 (i^(−i) not S), the series at i→∞ is about ...1+1+1+1+... with each value getting closer to 1. This makes the series not limit to a single value.

![for S=ζ(−s), S→∞ There maybe be an analytical approach such as ζ(−1)=ΣN^+ =−(1/(12)) My unproven solution would be that for S=Σ_(i=1) ^∞ i^(1/i) =ζ(−(1/i)) as i→∞, S→∞ So, I would suggest that S={∞, S_2 } Where S_2 is an analytical solution](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q3026.png)
