Moreover, it is useful to observe that in this case the definition of rational formal power series can be simplified: a f.p.s. r∈ℚ⟨!⟨z⟩!⟩ is rational if and only if r is the quotient of two polynomials.
text: 1997, Greg Marks, Direct Product and Power Series Formations over 2-Primal Rings, Surender Kumar Jain, S. Tariq Rizvi, Advances in Ring Theory, Springer, page 239,
We also show that the ring of formal power series over a 2-primal ring (or even a ring satisfying (PS I)) need not be 2-primal.
text: This chapter gives a rigorous development of the algebraic properties of formal power series. Our goal is to extend the familiar operations on polynomial functions (like addition, multiplication, composition, and differentiation) to the setting of formal power series. In certain situations we will even be able to define infinite sums and products of formal power series.[…]In combinatorics, it usually suffices to consider formal power series whose coefficients are integers, rational numbers, or complex numbers.
