Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the Newton Series of a function $f: mathbb{N}...

I’m wondering if a function $f: mathbb{N} longrightarrow R$ can be represented as a Newton series given that all its forward differences exist.



The first thing I searched up was a result in complex analysis called Carlson’s Theorem which helps to show when a function in $mathbb{C}$ is identical to its Newton series.



But the functions I’m concerned with only has domain $mathbb{N}$. With my naive understanding of Taylor series’s, I know that if a function is infinitely differentiable at a point, then it is identical to its Taylor series at that point.



Can something analogous be true for Newton series’s if I restrict functions to domain $mathbb{N}$ instead of $mathbb{C}$ without any extra conditions such as those in Carlson’s Theorem?
