%N G.f. satisfies: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n * (1 + x*A(x)^(n-1))^n.

%C Compare g.f. to a g.f. C(x) of the Catalan sequence:

%C C(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n*(1 + x*C(x)^2)^n where C(x) = 1 + x*C(x)^2.

%F G.f. satisfies:

%F (1) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n * (1 + x*A(x)^(n-1))^n.

%F (2) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^(2*n) * A(x)^(n*(n-1)) / (1 - x*A(x)^n)^(n+1).

%F (3) A(x) = x/Series_Reversion( x*G(x) ), where G(x) = A(x*G(x)) is the g.f. of A300043.

%e G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 3*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 20*x^5 + 63*x^6 + 215*x^7 + 783*x^8 + 2998*x^9 + 11977*x^10 + 49656*x^11 + 212738*x^12 + ...

%e such that

%e A(x) = 1 + x*(1+x) + x^2*(1+x*A(x))^2 + x^3*(1+x*A(x)^2)^3 + x^4*(1+x*A(x)^3)^4 + x^5*(1+x*A(x)^4)^5 + x^6*(1+x*A(x)^5)^6 + ...

%e The g.f. also satisfies the series identity:

%e A(x) = 1/(1-x) + x^2/(1-x*A(x))^2 + x^4*A(x)^2/(1-x*A(x)^2)^3 + x^6*A(x)^6/(1-x*A(x)^3)^4 + x^8*A(x)^12/(1-x*A(x)^4)^5 + x^10*A(x)^20/(1-x*A(x)^5)^6 + ...
