FORMULA
G.f. satisfies:
(1) A(x) = (1 + x*A(x))*(1 + 4*x^3*A(x)^3)*(1 + 4*x^4*A(x)^4)/(1 - 2*x^2*A(x)^2)^2.
(3) A(x) = (1/x)*Series_Reversion( x*(1 - 2*x^2)^2 / ((1 + x)*(1 + 4*x^3)*(1 + 4*x^4)) ).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 5*x^2 + 21*x^3 + 109*x^4 + 573*x^5 + 3209*x^6 +...
Let A = g.f. A(x), then the logarithm of the g.f. equals the series:
log(A(x)) = (1 + 2^2*x*A + 2^2*x^2*A^2)*x +
(1 + 4^2*x*A + 8^2*x^2*A^2 + 8^2*x^3*A^3 + 4^2*x^4*A^4)*x^2/2 +
(1 + 6^2*x*A + 18^2*x^2*A^2 + 32^2*x^3*A^3 + 36^2*x^4*A^4 + 24^2*x^5*A^5 + 8^2*x^6*A^6)*x^3/3 +
(1 + 8^2*x*A + 32^2*x^2*A^2 + 80^2*x^3*A^3 + 136^2*x^4*A^4 + 160^2*x^5*A^5 + 128^2*x^6*A^6 + 64^2*x^7*A^7 + 16^2*x^8*A^8)*x^4/4 +...
which involves the squares of the trinomial coefficients A084606(n,k):
