FORMULA
G.f. satisfies:
(1) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} A(x)^(n^2) * x^n / (1+x - x*A(x)^n)^(n+1).
(2) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n * Sum_{k=0..n} binomial(n,k) * (-1)^(n-k) * (A(x)^k + 1)^k.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 9*x^3 + 45*x^4 + 260*x^5 + 1631*x^6 +...
where we have the identities:
(0) A(x) = 1/(1+x) + (A(x)+1)*x/(1+x)^2 + (A(x)^2+1)^2*x^2/(1+x)^3 + (A(x)^3+1)^3*x^3/(1+x)^4 + (A(x)^4+1)^4*x^4/(1+x)^5 + (A(x)^5+1)^5*x^5/(1+x)^6 +...
(1) A(x) = 1 + A(x)*x/(1+x - x*A(x))^2 + A(x)^4*x^2/(1+x - x*A(x)^2)^3 + A(x)^9*x^3/(1+x - x*A(x)^3)^4 + A(x)^16*x^4/(1+x - x*A(x)^4)^5 + A(x)^25*x^5/(1+x - x*A(x)^5)^6 + A(x)^36*x^6/(1+x - x*A(x)^6)^7 +...
(2) A(x) = 1 - x*(1 - (A(x)+1)) + x^2*(1 - 2*(A(x)+1) + (A(x)^2+1)^2) - x^3*(1 - 3*(A(x)+1) + 3*(A(x)^2+1)^2 - (A(x)^3+1)^3) + x^4*(1 - 4*(A(x)+1) + 6*(A(x)^2+1)^2 - 4*(A(x)^3+1)^3 + (A(x)^4+1)^4) - x^5*(1 - 5*(A(x)+1) + 10*(A(x)^2+1)^2 - 10*(A(x)^3+1)^3 + 5*(A(x)^4+1)^4 - (A(x)^5+1)^5) +...
