COMMENTS
The definition of the e.g.f. A(x) is an application of the identity Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n*log(1 - q^n*x)^n*y^n/n! = Sum_{n>=0} binomial(q^n*y +n-1, n)*x^n at x=2, y=1, q=x.
FORMULA
E.g.f.: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n * log(1 - 2*x^n)^n/n!.
E.g.f.: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} 2^n * Sum_{k=0..n} |Stirling1(n,k)|*x^(n*k)/n!.
EXAMPLE
E.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 4*x^2/2! + 16*x^3/3! + 144*x^4/4! + 768*x^5/5! +...
Series expansions:
A(x) = 1 - log(1 - 2*x) + log(1 - 2*x^2)^2/2! - log(1 - 2*x^3)^3/3! + log(1 - 2*x^4)^4/4! +...+ (-1)^n*log(1 - 2*x^n)^n/n! +...
A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 2^2*x^2*(x^2+1)/2! + 2^3*x^3*(x^3+1)*(x^3+2)/3! + 2^4*x^4*(x^4+1)*(x^4+2)*(x^4+3)/4! +...+ 2^n*binomial(x^n + n-1, n) +...
