In mathematics, a binomial ring is a ring whose additive group is torsion-free that contains all binomial coefficients

( x n ) = x ( x 1 ) ( x n + 1 ) n !

for x in the ring and n a positive integer. Binomial rings were introduced by Hall (1969).

Elliott (2006) showed that binomial rings are essentially the same as λ-rings such that all Adams operations are the identity.
