Suppose s = (c(0), c(1), c(2), ...) is a sequence and p(S) is a polynomial. Let S(x) = c(0)*x + c(1)*x^2 + c(2)*x^3 + ... and T(x) = (-p(0) + 1/p(S(x)))/x. The p-INVERT of s is the sequence t(s) of coefficients in the Maclaurin series for T(x). Taking p(S) = 1 - S gives the "INVERT" transform of s, so that p-INVERT is a generalization of the "INVERT" transform (e.g., A033453).
See A290890 for a guide to related sequences.

FORMULA

G.f.: (3 x - 12 x^2 + 16 x^3 - 12 x^4 + 3 x^5)/(1 - 8 x + 25 x^2 - 44 x^3 + 54 x^4 - 44 x^5 + 25 x^6 - 8 x^7 + x^8).
a(n) = 8*a(n-1) - 25*a(n-2) + 44*a(n-3) - 54*a(n-4) + 44*a(n-5) - 25*a(n-6) + 8*a(n-7) - a(n-8).
