Abstract
We study some properties and perspectives of the Hurwitz series ring \(H_R[[t]]\), for an integral domain R, with multiplicative identity and zero characteristic. Specifically, we provide a closed form for the invertible elements by means of the complete ordinary Bell polynomials, we highlight some connections with well–known transforms of sequences, and we see that the Stirling transforms are automorphisms of \(H_R[[t]]\). Moreover, we focus the attention on some special subgroups studying their properties. Finally, we introduce a new transform of sequences that allows to see one of this subgroup as an ultrametric dynamic space.
