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 + x - 2 x^2 - 3 x^3 + 2 x^4 + x^5 - x^6)/(1 - x - 5 x^2 + 2 x^3 + 9 x^4 - 2 x^5 - 5 x^6 + x^7 + x^8).

a(n) = a(n-1) + 5*a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3) - 9*a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5) + 5*a(n-6) - a(n-7) - a(n-8) for n >= 9.
