Abstract
The aim of this paper is to give an account of some results and conjectures involving “for almost all p” properties of power series. Our main concern is to exhibit links between three topics : automaticity, algebraicity (mod n) and D-finiteness. Diagonals of rational fractions seem to be at the heart of the problem. In the last part, we show they appear as (regular) solutions near singularity of Picard-Fuchs differential equations.
