Abstract: We define rationally additive semirings that are a generalization of (ω)-complete and (ω)-continuous semirings. We prove that every rationally additive semiring is an iteration semiring. Moreover, we characterize the semirings of rational power series with coefficients in , the semiring of natural numbers equipped with a top element, as the free rationally additive semirings 1.) C.
