Let be $ \Lambda\subseteq \mathbb C$ a lattice, I don't understand why the series $$\sum_{\lambda\in\Lambda\setminus\{0\}} \frac{1}{|\lambda|^s}$$ converges for $s>2$. Can someone help me?

Start by looking initially, the the first 8 terms (with $\lambda$ nearest to $0$), in terms of the smallest distance of these 8 values of $\lambda$ from $0$ (call it $r$). You should get $$\frac{1}{|\lambda^s|} \leq \frac{1}{r^s}.$$ Then for the next 16 terms (slightly further away from $0$), you should be able to get: $$\frac{1}{|\lambda^s|} \leq \frac{1}{(2r)^s}$$ and so on for values of $\lambda$ further out from $0$. If you then add the first $8(1+2+\dots+n)$ values of $\lambda$, you find that the partial sum is bounded above by $$\frac{8}{r^s}\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k^{s-1}},$$ which should give the convergence for $s>2$. You could also look at lower bounds in the same way if you wanted to show that the series converges if and only if $s>2$. |
