FORMULA
G.f. satisfies:
(1) A(x) = x + A(A(x))^2.
(2) A(x) = x + Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) A(x)^(2*n) / n!.
(3) A(x) = x*exp( Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) A(x)^(2*n)/x / n! ).
(4) A(x) = x*G(A(x)^2/x) where G(x) = 1 + x*G(1-1/G(x))^2 is the g.f. of A212411.
(5) A(x)^2 = x*F(A(x)) where F(x) = 1 - (x^2/F(x))/F(x^2/F(x)) is the g.f. of A213628.
(6) x = A(A( x-x^2 - A(x)^2 )). - Paul D. Hanna, Jul 01 2012
(7) A(x) is the unique solution to variable A in the infinite system of simultaneous equations starting with:
A = x + B^2;
B = A + C^2;
C = B + D^2;
D = C + E^2; ...
where B = A(A(x)), C = A(A(A(x))), D = A(A(A(A(x)))), etc.
...
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n-1} A277295(n,k).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = x + x^2 + 4*x^3 + 24*x^4 + 178*x^5 + 1512*x^6 + 14152*x^7 +...
where A(x) = x + A(A(x))^2:
A(A(x)) = x + 2*x^2 + 10*x^3 + 69*x^4 + 568*x^5 + 5250*x^6 + 52792*x^7 +...
A(A(x))^2 = x^2 + 4*x^3 + 24*x^4 + 178*x^5 + 1512*x^6 + 14152*x^7 +...
The g.f. satisfies the series:
A(x) = x + A(x)^2 + d/dx A(x)^4/2! + d^2/dx^2 A(x)^6/3! + d^3/dx^3 A(x)^8/4! +...
Logarithmic series:
log(A(x)/x) = A(x)^2/x + [d/dx A(x)^4/x]/2! + [d^2/dx^2 A(x)^6/x]/3! + [d^3/dx^3 A(x)^8/x]/4! +...
Also, A(x) = x*G(A(x)^2/x) where G(x) = x/A(x/G(x)^2) is the g.f. of A212411:
G(x) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 7*x^3 + 36*x^4 + 235*x^5 + 1792*x^6 + 15261*x^7 +...
Also, A(x)^2 = x*F(A(x)) where F(x) is the g.f. of A213628:
F(x) = x + x^2 + 3*x^3 + 14*x^4 + 85*x^5 + 616*x^6 + 5072*x^7 + 46013*x^8 +...
