COMMENTS
Suppose s = (c(0), c(1), c(2), ...) is a sequence and p(S) is a polynomial. Let S(x) = c(0)*x + c(1)*x^2 + c(2)*x^3 + ... and T(x) = (-p(0) + 1/p(S(x)))/x. The p-INVERT of s is the sequence t(s) of coefficients in the Maclaurin series for T(x). Taking p(S) = 1 - S gives the INVERT transform of s, so that p-INVERT is a generalization of the INVERT transform (e.g., A033453).
FORMULA
G.f.: (1 - 3 x)/(1 - 9 x + 19 x^2).
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 19*a(n-2).
a(n) = (2^(-2-n)*((9-sqrt(5))^(n+1)*(-11+3*sqrt(5)) + (9+sqrt(5))^(n+1)*(11+3*sqrt(5)))) / (19*sqrt(5)). - Colin Barker, Aug 11 2017
a(n) = A081574(n+1)-3*A081574(n). - R. J. Mathar, Jul 08 2022
