An advantage of this purely formal point of view is that invertibility of formal power series does not depend on convergence. Moreover, certain properties of the ring R can directly be transferred to the ring of formal power series R
X

Theorem 1.40. The following properties transfer from R to RX:
(a)RX is an integral domain if and only if the ring R ...
