A Revision to the Brocard's Problem

Authors: Juan Elias Millas Vera

Henri Brocard posed two articles in 1876 and 1885 exposing the diophantine equation n!+1=m^2. It was also propose by Ramanujan. The unsolved problem says that it has not possible other solutions than n=4,5,7. In this paper I want to show a revision of the problem with the Stirling’s approximation to factorials.
