FORMULA
E.g.f.: A(x) = Series_Reversion( x - log(1 - x)^2 ).
E.g.f.: x + Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) log(1-x)^(2*n)/n!.
E.g.f.: x*exp( Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) (log(1-x)^(2*n)/x)/n! ).
E.g.f. derivative: A'(x) = (1 - A(x))/(1 - A(x) + 2*log(1 - A(x))).
a(n) = ((n-1)!*sum(k=0..n-1, binomial(n+k-1,n-1)*sum(j=0..k, (-1)^(n+j-1)*binomial(k,j)*sum(l=0..j, (binomial(j,l)*(2*(j-l))!*stirling1(n-l+j-1,2*(j-l)))/(n-l+j-1)!)))), n>0. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 07 2012
a(n) ~ c*sqrt(4/(1+c)-2-2*c) * n^(n-1) / (exp(n) * (1-c*(2+c))^n), where c = LambertW(1/2) = 0.35173371124919... (see A202356). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 24 2014
