Bullett and Macdonald [1] have used power series to simplify the statement and proof of the Adem relations for Steenrod cohomology operations. In this paper I give a similar treatment of May's generalized Adem relations [4, §4] and of the Nishida relations ([6], [2, 1.1.1(9)], [5, 3.1(7)]). Both sets of relations apply to Dyer-Lashof operations in E∞, spaces such as infinite loop spaces ([3], [2, I.I]) and in H^ ring spectra ([5, §3]).
