Abstract

We introduce a new expansion of a function inspired by the Taylor series expansion and we examine which functions admit such expansion. Via this expansion the solution of the difference equation \(y(x + 1) - y(x) = g(x)\) can be written down explicitly. Some examples involving the Gamma function are given.
