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).

See A291382 for a guide to related sequences.

Formula

G.f.: -(((1 + x) (6 - 11 x - 5 x^2 + 12 x^3 + 6 x^4))/((-1 + x + x^2) (-1 + 2 x + 2 x^2) (-1 + 3 x + 3 x^2))).

a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 5*a(n-2) - 16*a(n-3) + 7*a(n-4) + 18*a(n-5) + 6*a(n-6) for n >= 7.
