Let p(k)=prod(i=0,k,2^i+1) (A028361) then for any n>0 we get the asymptotic formula as m-->infty : 2-R(m)=a(0)*(1/p(m))+a(1)*(2/p(m+1))+...+a(n)*(2^n/p(m+n))+O(1/p(m+n+1)). In particular there is this unexpected relation between an infinite nested radical and an infinite product : limit m-->infty (2-R(m))*2^(m*(m+1)/2)=1/prod(i>=0,1+1/2^i)=0.29.... (A083864).
