FORMULA
Power series s(z) defined by (1+z)*exp(-z) = (1 + s(z))*exp(-s(z)).
s(z) = -1 - LambertW(-(1+z)*exp(-z-1)). - Max Alekseyev, Aug 17 2013
EXAMPLE
s(z) = -z + (2/3)*z^2 - (4/9)*z^3 + (44/135)*z^4 - (104/405)*z^5 + (40/189)*z^6 - (7648/42525)*z^7 + O(z^8).
MAPLE
assume(z>0); series( -1 - LambertW(-(1+z)*exp(-z-1)), z, 20 );
MATHEMATICA
