FORMULA

G.f. A(x) satisfies the functional equation: A(x)-x = x*A(A(x)). - Paul D. Hanna, Aug 04 2002

G.f.: A(x/(1+A(x))) = x. - Paul D. Hanna, Dec 04 2003

Suppose the functions A=A(x), B=B(x), C=C(x), etc., satisfy: A = 1 + xAB, B = 1 + xABC, C = 1 + xABCD, D = 1 + xABCDE, etc., then B(x)=A(x*A(x)), C(x)=B(x*A(x)), D(x)=C(x*A(x)), etc., where A(x) = 1 + x*A(x)*A(x*A(x)) and x*A(x) is the g.f. of this sequence (see table A128325). - Paul D. Hanna, Mar 10 2007

G.f. A(x) = x*F(x,1) where F(x,n) satisfies: F(x,n) = F(x,n-1)*(1 + x*F(x,n+1)) for n>0 with F(x,0)=1. - Paul D. Hanna, Apr 16 2007

a(n) = [x^(n-1)] [1 + A(x)]^n/n for n>=1 with a(0)=0; i.e., a(n) equals the coefficient of x^(n-1) in [1+A(x)]^n/n for n>=1. [From Paul D. Hanna, Nov 18 2008]

Contribution from Paul D. Hanna, Jul 09 2009: (Start)

Let A(x)^m = Sum_{n>=0} a(n,m)*x^n with a(0,m)=1, then

a(n,m) = Sum_{k=0..n} m*C(n+m,k)/(n+m) * a(n-k,k).

(End)

G.f. satisfies:

* A(x) = x*exp( Sum_{m>=0} {d^m/dx^m A(x)^(m+1)/x} * x^(m+1)/(m+1)! );

* A(x) = x*exp( Sum_{m>=1} [Sum_{k>=0} C(m+k-1,k)*{[y^k] A(y)^m/y^m}*x^k]*x^m/m );

which are equivalent. [Paul D. Hanna, Dec 15 2010]

The g.f. satisfies:

log(A(x)/x) = A(x) + {d/dx A(x)^2/x}*x^2/2! + {d^2/dx^2 A(x)^3/x}*x^3/3! + {d^3/dx^3 A(x)^4/x}*x^4/4! +... [Paul D. Hanna, Dec 15 2010]

EXAMPLE

G.f.: A(x) = x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + 6*x^4 + 23*x^5 + 104*x^6 +...

A(A(x)) = x + 2*x^2 + 6*x^3 + 23*x^4 + 104*x^5 + 531*x^6 +...

MAPLE

A:= proc(n) option remember;

      unapply (`if`(n=0, x,

      A(n-1)(x)+coeff(A(n-1)(A(n-1)(x)), x, n) *x^(n+1)), x)

    end:
