COMMENTS

A(A(A(A(x)))) is the 4-th self-composition of the g.f. A(x).

EXAMPLE

G.f.: A(x) = x + x^2 + 12*x^3 + 390*x^4 + 18304*x^5 + 1071862*x^6 +...

A(A(x)) = x + 2*x^2 + 26*x^3 + 841*x^4 + 39440*x^5 + 2308752*x^6 +...

A(A(A(x))) = x + 3*x^2 + 42*x^3 + 1359*x^4 + 63730*x^5 + 3730610*x^6 +...

A(A(A(A(x)))) = x + 4*x^2 + 60*x^3 + 1950*x^4 + 91520*x^5 + 5359310*x^6 +...

so that 5*A(x) = A(A(A(A(x)))) + 4*x + x^2.

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A=x+x^2, G); if(n<1, 0, for(i=3, n+1, G=x; for(j=1, 4, G=subst(A, x, G+x*O(x^i))); A=A+polcoeff(G, i)*x^i); polcoeff(A, n))}
