such that
A(x) = 1 + ((1+x)^4-1) + ((1+x)^8-1)^2 + ((1+x)^12-1)^3 + ((1+x)^16-1)^4 + ((1+x)^20-1)^5 + ((1+x)^24-1)^6 + ((1+x)^28-1)^7 + ...
Also,
A(x) = 1/2 + (1+x)^4/(1 + (1+x)^4)^2 + (1+x)^16/(1 + (1+x)^8)^3 + (1+x)^36/(1 + (1+x)^12)^4 + (1+x)^64/(1 + (1+x)^16)^5 + (1+x)^100/(1 + (1+x)^20)^6 + ...
