A recurrence satisfied by a function asymptotic to $n^n$

A function $f\colon \{0,1,\dots\}\to \mathbb{R}$ is P-recursive if it satisfies a recurrence $$ P_d(n)f(n+d)+P_{d-1}(n)f(n+d-1)+\cdots+P_0(n)f(n)=0,\ n\geq 0, $$ where each $P_i(n)\in \mathbb{R}[n]$ a …

A question on the Laurent phenomenon

I am wondering whether the same technique might apply to other Laurent phenomenon recurrences, or whether it can be proved in certain cases that such an approach cannot work. …

A conjectured rational generating function

In regard to my question here, let $G_n$ be a sequence of positive integers satisfying $\lim_{n\to\infty}G_n=\infty$, such that the generating function $\sum_{n\geq 1} G_nx^n$ is rational. Let $$ P_n( …

Can P-recursive functions assume only prime values?

What about more general recurrences? For instance, let $F(x)=\sum f(n)x^n\in\mathbb{Z}[[x]]$, where $f(n)$ is unbounded. …
