EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = x + x^2 + 6*x^3 + 45*x^4 + 414*x^5 + 4310*x^6 + 49068*x^7 + 598253*x^8 + 7707738*x^9 + 103981222*x^10 + 1459259444*x^11 + 21201220726*x^12 + 317718863636*x^13 + 4897066444332*x^14 + 77455837982360*x^15 + 1254882911977597*x^16 +...
such that A( x - A(x)^2 - 2*A(x)^4 - A(x)^6 ) = x.
RELATED SERIES.
The g.f. of A185898 equals G(x) = A(x) + A(x)^2, which begins:
A(x) + A(x)^2 = x + 2*x^2 + 8*x^3 + 58*x^4 + 516*x^5 + 5264*x^6 + 59056*x^7 + 712002*x^8 + 9091360*x^9 + 121741316*x^10 +...+ A185898(n)*x^n +...
and satisfies G(x - G(x)^2) = x + x^2.
Also, we have the series:
A(x)^2*(1 + A(x))^2 = x^2 + 4*x^3 + 20*x^4 + 148*x^5 + 1328*x^6 + 13520*x^7 + 150788*x^8 + 1804308*x^9 + 22852504*x^10 + 303523048*x^11 + 4199277144*x^12 +...
where A( x - A(x)^2*(1 + A(x))^2 ) = x.
Define the series reversion Ai(x) by Ai(A(x)) = x, then Ai(x) begins:
Ai(x) = x - x^2 - 4*x^3 - 20*x^4 - 148*x^5 - 1328*x^6 - 13520*x^7 - 150788*x^8 - 1804308*x^9 - 22852504*x^10 +...
so that Ai(x) = x - A(x)^2*(1 + A(x))^2.
Finally, another series of interest is
sqrt(A(x) - x) = x + 3*x^2 + 18*x^3 + 153*x^4 + 1534*x^5 + 17178*x^6 + 208276*x^7 + 2685135*x^8 + 36381426*x^9 + 513935734*x^10 + 7526074612*x^11 + 113767244374*x^12 + 1769506176124*x^13 + 28247513919396*x^14 + 461885675312008*x^15 + 7723529901763157*x^16 +...
