comment How to define the term closed-form expression?
@BillDubuque Thanks for the hint! I searched the archive, but couldn't find any similar question (I marked it as duplicated). The answers and comments there confirmed my suspicion, that it is not always meant to be a really precise term. Anyhow, I'll clarify my question a bit.

comment Does the math behind this joke work?
@Daniel I don't agree with the others. I think they just didn't understand your question. I suppose this should be clear too now after your edit. There is no reason why not to ask if cyclic groups are Abelian. But I guess, every mathematical joke will contains only true mathematical statements otherwise mathematicians won't like joke... ;)

comment Linear recursion with coefficients depending on n
Sorry, you acutally answered my question completly. I had different expectations and didn't want to see that you are right... ;)

comment Is there a good proof that all the polynomials in this family are irreducible?
Sorry, I improved the answere a little bit.

comment Linear recursion with coefficients depending on n
You were some seconds faster... :) Since there is a genreal method for all linear recursions, I thought maybe this could be extended to this case somehow. But if you say that you don't think so it's also a very useful answere!

comment Linear recursion with coefficients depending on n
Yeah you are right of course, but there are helpful methods anyway. Either through generating functions or the characteristic polynomial, see here for example.

comment Linear recursion with coefficients depending on n
Well also if have specefic $(b_n)_{n≥0}$ and $(c_n)_{n≥0}$, it might be really difficult to find the solution if I dont' have the right idea. I was wondering if there is something like a characteristic polynomial for this case.

comment Recursive Generating function for enumerating leaf labeled binary trees
Uh yes, thanks a lot! I totally forgot that I've to deal with labeled structures.
