FORMULA
G.f. satisfies: (1 + x^3*A(x)^3) / (1 + x*A(x)) = (1-x)*(1+x^3).
G.f.: (1 - sqrt(4*(1-x)*(1+x^3) - 3))/(2*x).
a(n) ~ sqrt(1-3*r+r^3) / (2*sqrt(Pi)*n^(3/2)*r^(n+1)), where r = (1-2*sqrt(1/4 + 3^(1/3)/2^(2/3)) + sqrt(2-2*6^(1/3) + 7/sqrt(1/4 + 3^(1/3)/2^(2/3))))/4 = 0.2634705866719... is the root of the equation r^4-r^3+r=1/4. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 08 2013
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + x^2 + 4*x^3 + 10*x^4 + 29*x^5 + 86*x^6 + 266*x^7 +...
such that, by definition,
1-x = 1 - x*A(x) + x^2*A(x)^2 - x^3 + x^4*A(x) - x^5*A(x)^2 + x^6 - x^7*A(x) + x^8*A(x)^2 - x^9 + x^10*A(x) - x^11*A(x)^2 + ....
