%N G.f. satisfies: x = A(x) - A(x)^2 - A(A(x))^2.

%F G.f. satisfies: A_{n}(x) = A_{n+1}(x) - A_{n+1}(x)^2 - A_{n+2}(x)^2 where A_{n+1}(x) = A_{n}(A(x)) denotes iteration with A_0(x)=x.

%F G.f. satisfies: A(x) = A(A(x)) - A(A(x))^2 - A(A(A(x)))^2.

%F G.f. satisfies: x = A( x-x^2 - A(x)^2 ).

%F ...

%F Given g.f. A(x), A(x)/x is the unique solution to variable A in the infinite system of simultaneous equations starting with:

%F . A = 1 + xA^2 + xB^2;

%F . B = A + xB^2 + xC^2;

%F . C = B + xC^2 + xD^2;

%F . D = C + xD^2 + xE^2; ...
