In Friedman's urn model ($a_{0} = 1, b_{0} = 0, a = d = 0, b = c = 1$), we have for all integers $n$ and all $t \in ]0,1[$, $$g_{n}(t) = \frac{1}{n!} \sum_{p=1}^{+\infty} p^{n} t^{p} (1-t)^{n+1}.$$ Fix an integer $n \geqslant 2$.
Show that $\sum_{p=n+1}^{+\infty} p^{n} t^{p} (1-t)^{n+1} \underset{t \rightarrow 0^{+}}{=} O(t^{n+1})$.
