Introduction to the Riordan group

Louis Shapiro
Department of Mathematics
Howard University


Abstract

In this talk we will show how to prove some challenging identities using
just matrix multiplication and composition of functions. This leads
quickly to the idea of the Riordan group which then allows the inversion
of identities.
