COMMENTS
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 A292480 for a guide to related sequences.

FORMULA
G.f.: -(((1 + x) (1 - 3 x + 6 x^2 - 3 x^3 + 3 x^4))/(-1 + 7 x - 17 x^2 + 23 x^3 - 12 x^4 + 6 x^5 + 2 x^6)).
a(n) = 7*a(n-1) - 17*a(n-2) + 23*a(n-3) + 12*a(n-4) + 6*a(n-5) + 2*a(n-6) for n >= 7.
