Talk:Multiplicative sequence

Article must make clear what its symbols represent
In the Definition section, it is stated that p1, p2, p3, ... are indeterminates. But it is left entirely unstated what p'1, p'2, p'3, ... and p"1, p"2, p"3, ... are.

If we assume that they are also indeterminates, then the first equation:


 * $$\sum_i p_i z^i = \sum_i p'_i z^i \cdot \sum_i p''_i z^i $$

and the second equation:


 * $$\sum_i K_i(p_1,\ldots,p_i) z^i = \sum_j K_j(p'_1,\ldots,p'_j) z^j \cdot \sum_k K_k(p_1,\ldots,p_k) z^k $$

each make no sense at all.

So, it must be stated what p'1, p'2, p'3, ... and p"1, p"2, p"3, ... are.50.205.142.50 (talk) 16:34, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
