FORMULA

G.f. A(x) satisfies (1+x)^2=A(x)^2/A(x/(1+x)).

A003504(n) ~ C^(2^n)(n+2-1/n+4/n^2-21/n^3+138/n^4-1091/n^5+...) where C=1.04783144757... (see A115632).

A052129(n) ~ s^(2^n)/(n+2-1/n+4/n^2-21/n^3+138/n^4-1091/n^5+...) where s=1.661687949633... (see A112302).

MATHEMATICA

n = 19; f[x_] := Sum[c[k] x^k, {k, 0, n}]; c[0] = 1; eq = Thread[ CoefficientList[ Series[(1 + x)^2*f[x/(1 + x)] - f[x]^2, {x, 0, n}], x] == 0]; Table[c[k], {k, 0, n}] /. Solve[ Rest[eq]][[1]] (* From Jean-François Alcover, Jul 28 2011, after g.f. *)

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A); if(n<0, 0, A=1; for(k=1, n, A=truncate(A+O(x^k))+x*O(x^k); A=-A+2/subst(A^(-1/2), x, x/(1+x))*(1+x); ); polcoeff(A, n))}
