FORMULA
| G.f.: (1 - sqrt(1 - 4*x + 4*x^3)) / 2. Satisfies A(x) - A(x)^2 = x - x^3 - Michael Somos, Aug 04, 2000.
Comment from Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 27 2008: Given an integer t >= 1 and initial values u = [a_0, a_1, ..., a_{t-1}], we may define an infinite sequence Phi(u) by setting a_n = a_{n-1} + a_0*a_{n-1} + a_1*a_{n-2} + ... + a_{n-2}*a_1 for n >= t. For example Phi([1]) is the Catalan numbers A000108. The present sequence is Phi([1,1,1]).
