COMMENTS
Compare g.f. to: G(x) = 1/G(-x*G(x)^7) when G(x) = 1 + x*G(x)^5 (A002294).
An infinite number of functions G(x) satisfy (*) G(x) = 1/G(-x*G(x)^9); for example, (*) is satisfied by G(x) = F(m*x) = 1 + m*x*F(m*x)^5 for all m, where F(x) is the g.f. of A002294.
FORMULA
The g.f. of this sequence is the limit of the recurrence:
(*) G_{n+1}(x) = (G_n(x) + 1/G_n(-x*G_n(x)^9))/2 starting at G_0(x) = 1+2*x.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 20*x^2 + 220*x^3 + 2280*x^4 + 25920*x^5 + 443744*x^6 +...
A(x)^5 = 1 + 10*x + 140*x^2 + 1980*x^3 + 26680*x^4 + 362432*x^5 + 5617920*x^6 +...
A(x)^9 = 1 + 18*x + 324*x^2 + 5532*x^3 + 88776*x^4 + 1386432*x^5 + 22460832*x^6 +...
