    This nice paper is motivated by the work of \textit{J.-P. Allouche} and \textit{J. Shallit} [Automatic sequences. Theory, applications, generalizations. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press (2003; Zbl 1086.11015)] and \textit{P.-G. Becker} [J. Number Theory 49, No. 3, 269--286 (1994; Zbl 0821.11013)]. The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the relationship between automatic and regular sequences, and regular power series satisfying Mahler equations. The author studies a Becker's conjecture regarding Mahler equations. He proves a stronger form of Becker's conjecture for a subclass of Mahler power series.
