Regarding ComplexExpand, your expressions for d, integral powers of Abs, are already in expanded forms acceptable to ComplexExpand. You want alternate forms without Abs. Tell ComplexExpand that, ComplexExpand[d, TargetFunctions -> {Re, Im}] and it will give you the answers you want. Each new application of Simplify or FullSimplify is an adventure :-) > Could somebody explain why Mathematica does not return the same > expression in the following cases. ...
