COMMENTS

Radius of convergence is r = (-1 + 6*A(r) - A(r)^2)/4 = 0.172815973872...

where A(r) = 1 - exp((A(r)-1)/2) = 0.2965325775...

FORMULA

E.g.f.: A(x) = Series_Reversion( x - log(1 - x)^2 ).

E.g.f. derivative: A'(x) = (1 - A(x))/(1 - A(x) + 2*log(1 - A(x))).

a(n)=((n-1)!*sum(k=0..n-1, binomial(n+k-1,n-1)*sum(j=0..k, (-1)^(n+j-1)*binomial(k,j)*sum(l=0..j, (binomial(j,l)*(2*(j-l))!*stirling1(n-l+j-1,2*(j-l)))/(n-l+j-1)!)))), n>0. [From Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 07 2012]

EXAMPLE

A(x) = x + 2*x^2/2! + 18*x^3/3! + 262*x^4/4! + 5320*x^5/5! +...

-log(1 - A(x)) = G(x) = the g.f. of A143155:

G(x) = x + 3*x^2/2! + 26*x^3/3! + 376*x^4/4! + 7614*x^5/5! +...

G(x)^2 = 2*x^2/2! + 18*x^3/3! + 262*x^4/4! + 5320*x^5/5! +...

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A=x+O(x^n)); for(i=0, n, A=x + log(1-A)^2); n!*polcoeff(A, n)}

(PARI) {a(n)=n!*polcoeff(serreverse(x-log(1-x+x*O(x^n))^2), n)}

(Maxima) a(n):=((n-1)!*sum(binomial(n+k-1, n-1)*sum((-1)^(n+j-1)*binomial(k, j)*sum((binomial(j, l)*(2*(j-l))!*stirling1(n-l+j-1, 2*(j-l)))/(n-l+j-1)!, l, 0, j), j, 0, k), k, 0, n-1)); [From Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 07 2012]
