Description
A series is recognisable by a polynomial automaton iff its reversal is Hadamard-finite (paper appendix). Only-if: the component series generate a Hadamard algebra closed under left derivatives containing . If: from a left-derivative- closed Hadamard algebra containing , rebuild the polynomial automaton with initial state and transitions given by the left-derivative polynomials; an induction on the word shows , hence .
