FORMULA
G.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - (1-x)^n )^n.
(2) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - (1-x)^(n+1) )^n.
(3) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - (1-x)^(n+1) )^n * (1-x)^(n+1).
(4) A(x)^2 = 2*A(x) * [ Sum_{n>=0} (n+1) * ( 1/A(x) - (1-x)^(n+1) )^n ] - [ Sum_{n>=0} (n+1) * ( 1/A(x) - (1-x)^(n+2) )^n ].
(5) A(x) = [ Sum_{n>=1} n*(n+1)/2 * (1-x)^(n+1) * ( 1/Ser(A) - (1-x)^(n+1) )^(n-1) ] / [ Sum_{n>=1} n^2 * (1-x)^n * ( 1/Ser(A) - (1-x)^n )^(n-1) ].
a(n) ~ 2^(log(2)/2 - 5/2) * n^n / (sqrt(1-log(2)) * exp(n) * (log(2))^(2*n+1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 06 2018

such that
1 = 1 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)) + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^2)^2 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^3)^3 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^4)^4 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^5)^5 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^6)^6 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^7)^7 + (1/A(x) - (1-x)^8)^8 + ...
