How to calculate this limit (if exist)?
I have just asked the calculation of the following summation see here $$S(a,b,m,n_1,n_2)=\sum_{k=0}^m a^k b^{m-k} {n_1\choose k} {n_2\choose m-k}, $$
which is motivated by the calculation of the ...

Local behavior of the Vandermonde convolution
An interesting combinatorial identity is the Vandermonde convolution identity:
$$ \sum_k {n\choose k}{m\choose s-k} = {n+m \choose s},$$
which can be proved by considering the coefficients in $(x+1)^{...
