Abstract

Given integers s,t, define a function phi_{s,t} on the space of all formal series expansions by phi_{s,t} (sum a_n x^n) = sum a_{sn+t} x^n. For each function phi_{s,t}, we determine the collection of all rational functions whose Taylor expansions at zero are fixed by phi_{s,t}. This collection can be described as a subspace of rational functions whose basis elements correspond to certain s-cyclotomic cosets associated with the pair (s,t).
