Abstract
The Riordan group, along with its constituent elements, Riordan arrays, has been a tool for combinatorial exploration since its inception in 1991. More recently, this group has made an appearance in the area of mathematical physics, where it can be used as a toy model in the theory of the renormalization of scalar fields. In this context, its Hopf algebra nature is of importance. In this note, we explain these notions. Power series play a fundamental role in this discussion.
