7.1 Asymptotes
Again, the cut-offs are independent on the coefficients with higher order of k and thus they do not change with respect to the two previous cases. For the asymptotes we only consider the terms with the highest order of k available and compute
\
\
We have again three asymptotes (the roots of a third order polynomial) which in general causes the analytical expressions to be impractical rather quickly. However, in this case it is possible to find one root by hand
