FORMULA
G.f. A(x) equals the formal inverse of function (x-1)*(2-x^2).
G.f. satisfies: A(x) = 1 + x/(2 - A(x)^2).
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + Series_Reversion( 2*x - x*(1+x)^2 ).
a(n) = (1/n)*Sum_{k=0..n-1} binomial(n+k-1, n-1)*Sum_{i=ceiling((n-k-1)/2)..n-k-1} binomial(i, n-k-i-1)*binomial(n+k+i-1, n+k-1), n > 0, a(0)=1. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Oct 11 2011
Recurrence: 8*(n-1)*n*a(n) = 34*(n-1)*(2*n-3)*a(n-1) + 3*(3*n-7)*(3*n-5)*a(n-2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 20 2012
a(n) ~ 1/3*sqrt(7/6 - 17/(6*sqrt(7)))*((17 + 7*sqrt(7))/4)^n/(sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 20 2012
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 9*x^3 + 50*x^4 + 311*x^5 + 2072*x^6 + ...
where (A(x) - 1)*(2 - A(x)^2) = x
and A(x - 2*x^2 - x^3) = 1 + x.
Related expansions:
(A(x)^2-1) = 2*x + 5*x^2 + 22*x^3 + 122*x^4 + 758*x^5 + 5047*x^6 + ...
(A(x)^2-1)^2 = 4*x^2 + 20*x^3 + 113*x^4 + 708*x^5 + 4736*x^6 + ...
(A(x)^2-1)^3 = 8*x^3 + 60*x^4 + 414*x^5 + 2909*x^6 + 20970*x^7 + ...
(A(x)^2-1)^4 = 16*x^4 + 160*x^5 + 1304*x^6 + 10184*x^7 + ...
Also,
A(x)^2 = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 22*x^3 + 122*x^4 + 758*x^5 + 5047*x^6 + ...
A(x)^3 = 1 + 3*x + 9*x^2 + 40*x^3 + 222*x^4 + 1380*x^5 + 9191*x^6 + ...
where 2 + x = 2*A(x) + A(x)^2 - A(x)^3.
