FORMULA
G.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n * [Sum_{k>=0} C(n+k,k)^2 *(x*A(x))^(2*k)] * (1 - x^2*A(x)^2)^(2*n+1).
(2) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^(3*n) * A(x)^(2*n) * [Sum_{k>=0} C(n+k,k)^2 * x^k].
(3) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^(3*n) * A(x)^(2*n) * [Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)^2 * x^k] /(1-x)^(2n+1).
(4) A(x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} (x^n/n) * Sum_{k=0..n} C(2*n,2*k) * (x*A(x))^(2*k) ).
(5) A(x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} (x^n/n) * ((1 + x*A(x))^(2*n) + (1 - x*A(x))^(2*n))/2 ).
(6) A(x) = 1 / sqrt((1 - x*(1 - x*A(x))^2) * (1 - x*(1 + x*A(x))^2)).
(7) A(x) = x*A(x) + x^3*A(x)^3 + sqrt(1 + 4*x^4*A(x)^4).
(8) A(x) = 1/x * Series_Reversion( x / (x + x^3 + sqrt(1 + 4*x^4)) ).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + x^2 + 2*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 21*x^5 + 54*x^6 + 141*x^7 + ...
where the g.f. A = A(x) equals the binomial series:
A(x) = 1 + x*(1 + x^2*A^2) + x^2*(1 + 2^2*x^2*A^2 + x^4*A^4)
+ x^3*(1 + 3^2*x^2*A^2 + 3^2*x^4*A^4 + x^6*A^6)
+ x^4*(1 + 4^2*x^2*A^2 + 6^2*x^4*A^4 + 4^2*x^6*A^6 + x^8*A^8)
+ x^5*(1 + 5^2*x^2*A^2 + 10^2*x^4*A^4 + 10^2*x^6*A^6 + 5^2*x^8*A^8 + x^10*A^10) + ...
Let A = g.f. A(x), then the g.f. satisfies:
log(A(x)) = x*(1 + x^2*A^2) + x^2*(1 + 6*x^2*A^2 + x^4*A^4)/2
+ x^3*(1 + 15*x^2*A^2 + 15*x^4*A^4 + x^6*A^6)/3
+ x^4*(1 + 28*x^2*A^2 + 70*x^4*A^4 + 28*x^6*A^6 + x^8*A^8)/4
+ x^5*(1 + 45*x^2*A^2 + 210*x^4*A^4 + 210*x^6*A^6 + 45*x^8*A^8 + x^10*A^10)/5 + ...
RELATED SERIES:
A(x)^2 = 1 + 2*x + 3*x^2 + 6*x^3 + 19*x^4 + 60*x^5 + 168*x^6 + ...
A(x)^3 = 1 + 3*x + 6*x^2 + 13*x^3 + 39*x^4 + 126*x^5 + 376*x^6 + ...
A(x)^4 = 1 + 4*x + 10*x^2 + 24*x^3 + 71*x^4 + 232*x^5 + 726*x^6 + ...
A(x)^6 = 1 + 6*x + 21*x^2 + 62*x^3 + 192*x^4 + 642*x^5 + 2145*x^6 + ...
where 1 = (1-x)^2*A(x)^2 - 2*x^3*(1+x)*A(x)^4 + x^6*A(x)^6.
Let G(x) = x/Series_Reversion(x*A(x)), then G(x*A(x)) = A(x), where
G(x) = x + x^3 + 1 + 2*x^4 - 2*x^8 + 4*x^12 - 10*x^16 + 28*x^20 - 84*x^24 + ...
G(x) = x + x^3 + sqrt(1 + 4*x^4).
