COMMENTS
Specific values: A(2/9) = 17/9 and A(-2/9) = 17/18.
Radius of convergence: r = sqrt(2*sqrt(3)-3)/3 = 0.2270833462...
with A(r) = (2 + sqrt(1-3*r))*(1+r^2)/(1+r) = 2.19775350...
and A(-r) = (2 - sqrt(1+3*r))*(1+r^2)/(1-r) = 3*(1+r^2) - A(r) = 0.9569470...
At x=r, the equation (*) (1+x^2)^2 - 2*(1+x^2)*y + (1+x)*y^2 - x*y^3 = 0, which is satisfied by y = A(x), factors out to: (y - A(r))^2 * (y - A(r)*(1+r^2)/(2*(A(r)-1-r^2))) = 0; this gives the relation: (A(r)-1-r^2)*(3+3*r^2-A(r)) = r*A(r)^2. At x>r, the equation (*) admits complex solutions for y.

FORMULA
G.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n satisfies the following formulas.
(1) (1+x^2)^2 - 2*(1+x^2)*A(x) + (1+x)*A(x)^2 - x*A(x)^3 = 0.
(2) A(x) = 1 + x*A(x)^2 + x^2 + x^2*A(-x).
(3) A(x) = 1 + x^2 + x*A(x)^2/A(-x).
(4) A(x) = 1 + x^2/(1 - A(-x)).
(5) A(x) = 1 + ( 1 - (1+x^2)/A(x) )^2/x.
(6) A(x) = (1+x^2)*G(x) where G(x) = 1 + x*G(x)^2/G(-x) is the g.f. of A143339.
Recurrence: (n-1)*(n+1)*(4*n^3 - 32*n^2 + 71*n - 30)*a(n) = 6*(8*n^3 - 56*n^2 + 101*n - 10)*a(n-1) + 6*(12*n^5 - 132*n^4 + 499*n^3 - 700*n^2 + 102*n + 305)*a(n-2) - 18*(n-4)*(8*n - 25)*a(n-3) + 27*(n-5)*(n-4)*(4*n^3 - 20*n^2 + 19*n + 13)*a(n-4). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 29 2013
a(n) ~ c * 3^(n-1) * 2*sqrt(6*sqrt(3)-6 + sqrt(9+6*sqrt(3))) / (2*sqrt(Pi) * (2*sqrt(3)-3)^(n/2+1/4) * n^(3/2)), where c = 4/(2+12^(1/4)) if n is even and c = 12/(6+12^(3/4)) if n is odd. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 29 2013
