How do I justify that for $xrightarrow1$
$$e^2xlogxsim (x-1)$$
I know that if $xrightarrow 0$, then $logxsim(x-1)$ because $log(1+x)sim x$ for $xrightarrow0$. This limit does not approach $0$, though, but 1. Any hints?
This is what my textbook does:
$$frace^2xlogx(x-1)^1/3simfrac(x-1)(x-1)^1/3$$
calculus asymptotics

That is a mistake. If by textbook you mean lecture notes, you should point this out to the professor who wrote it. It will be appreciated. (If it is a proper book, you can also write an e-mail to the author.)

As $xrightarrow 1$, we have $log xsim x-1$, and $e^2xsim e^2$, so $e^2xlog xsim e^2(x-1)$.

By L'Hospital we have
$lim_x to 1frace^2xlogxx-1= lim_x to 1(2e^2x log x+e^2xfrac1x)=e^2$.
