Hereby:

\begin{equation}
\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} x = 0
\end{equation}

according to Lamport's book: LaTeX, A document preparation system

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply.

What I wanted to know is
how to combine an underline and a limiting condition together
for liminf.

When I tried
\underline{ \lim }_{x \to \infty}
it gives me only something similar to

lim
---- x -> \infty

NOT

lim
----
x-> \infty

which I want.

Thanks, anyway.

According to the Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List (available from CTAN),
amsmath defines something called \varliminf, which may do what you
want.

\mathop{\underline{\lim}}_{x \to \infty}

\mathop is very usefull, it can also be used to make a primed
summation symbol.

just try:

$\lim\limits_{x \to \infty}f(x)$
