  We study the thermopower of a quantum dot weakly coupled to two reservoirs by
tunnel junctions. At low temperatures the transport through the dot is
suppressed by charging effects (Coulomb blockade). As a result the thermopower
shows an oscillatory dependence on the gate voltage. We study this dependence
in the limit of low temperatures where the transport through the dot is
dominated by the processes of inelastic cotunneling. We also obtain a crossover
formula for intermediate temperatures which connects our cotunneling results to
the known sawtooth behavior in the sequential tunneling regime. As the
temperature is lowered, the amplitude of thermopower oscillations increases,
and their shape changes qualitatively.
