### Simple bound for generalized geometric series

Let $b \in (0,1)$, $m\in \mathbb{N}$ and $a>0$. I want to bound $$\sum_{k=m+1}^\infty b^{k^a} \leq c \; b^{m^a},$$ where $c>0$ is independent from $m$. Is there a simple way of proving this ...

### Hamiltonian potentials of holomorphic vector fields on modifications of Kahler manifolds

let $(M,\omega)$ be a compact Kähler manifold. Let $\mathfrak{g}=H^{0}(M,T_{M})$ be the Lie algebra of holomorphic vector fields on $M$.We can decompose $\mathfrak{g}$ as ...

### Number of monomials of deg D where each variables has low degree

Let $D,n,d$ be three positive integers. I am looking for the number of monomials of degree $D$ in $n$ variables where each variable appears with exponent at most $d$. As a result of an application ...

### Complementation in tensor products

This question, however looks innocent, looks non-trivial to me. Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are Banach spaces and let $\alpha$ be any reasonable cross-norm on $X\otimes Y$. Reasonable means that ...

### Can infinitely many alternating knots have the same Alexander polynomial?

There exist many constructions of infinite families of knots with the same Alexander polynomial. However, alternating knots seem very special. While there are also many result on restricting the form ...
