Let u=1+T+∑n=2∞anTn be an element of Λ(Z). There exists one and only one group homomorphism λu:Z→Λ(Z) such that λu(1)=u, and (Z,λu) is a pre-λ-ring. One has λu(n)=un whatever n∈Z. In order that (Z,λu) be a λ-ring, it is necessary and sufficient that u=1+T, in which case one has
λm1+T(n)=(mn)=m!n(n−1)…(n−m+1) whatever
n∈Z and
m∈N.
