%N a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)* [x^(n-k)] A(x)^k for n>0, with a(0)=1.

%F G.f. A(x) satisfies [from _Paul D. Hanna_, Jun 29 2013]:

%F exp( Integral (A(x) - 1)/x dx ) = (1/x)*Series_Reversion(x/(1 + x*A(x)).

%e A(x) = 1 + x + 3*x^2 + 16*x^3 + 119*x^4 + 1116*x^5 + 12522*x^6 +...

%e From the table of n-th self-convolutions:

%e A^0: [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...];

%e A^1: [1, 1, 3, 16, 119, 1116, 12522, 162863, 2404103, 39673456, ...];

%e A^2: [1, 2, 7, 38, 279, 2566, 28246, 361274, 5258937, 85798608, ...];

%e illustrate a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*[x^(n-k)] A(x)^k by:

%e a(1) = 1*(0) + 1*(1) = 1;

%e a(2) = 1*(0) + 2*(1) + 1*(1) = 3;

%e a(3) = 1*(0) + 3*(3) + 3*(2) + 1*(1) = 16;

%e a(4) = 1*(0) + 4*(16) + 6*(7) + 4*(3) + 1*(1) = 119;

%e a(5) = 1*(0) + 5*(119) + 10*(38) + 10*(12) + 5*(4) + 1*(1) = 1116.

%e ALTERNATE FORMULA.

%e Define B(x) = (1/x)*Series_Reversion(x/(1 + x*A(x)),

%e then B(x) satisfies:

%e . B'(x)/B(x) = (A(x) - 1)/x;

%e . B(x) = 1 + x*B(x) * A(x*B(x));

%e . B( x/(1 + x*A(x)) ) = 1 + x*A(x).

%e Explicitly, B(x) begins:

%e B(x) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 7*x^3 + 37*x^4 + 265*x^5 + 2394*x^6 + 26033*x^7 +...

%e Note that

%e log(B(x)) = x + 3*x^2/2 + 16*x^3/3 + 119*x^4/4 + 1116*x^5/5 + 12522*x^6/6 +...

%o (PARI) {a(n)=local(A=1+sum(k=1,n-1,a(k)*x^k));if(n==0,1,sum(k=0,n,binomial(n,k)*polcoeff(A^k,n-k)))}
