A note on formal power series

Comment.Math.Univ.Carolin. 51,4 (2010) 595-604.

Abstract:In this note we investigate a relationship between the boundary behavior of power series and the composition of formal power series. In particular, we prove that the composition domain of a formal power series $g$ is convex and balanced which implies that the subset $\overline{\mathbb X}_g $ consisting of formal power series which can be composed by a formal power series $g$ possesses such properties. We also provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the superposition operator $T_g$ to map $\overline{\mathbb X}_g$ into itself or to map ${\mathbb X}_g$ into itself, respectively.

Keywords: composition, end behavior of convergence of power series, convex and balanced set, formal power series
