FORMULA
G.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - 1/(1+x)^(4*n) )^n.
(2) A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - 1/(1+x)^(4*n+4) )^n.
(3) 1 = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - 1/(1+x)^(4*n+4) )^n / (1+x)^(4*n+4).
(4) Let B(x,p) = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - 1/(1+x)^(4*n + p) )^n ,
then B(x,p) = Sum_{n>=0} ( 1/A(x) - 1/(1+x)^(4*(n+1)) )^n / (1+x)^((4-p)*(n+1)), where B(x,0) = 1 and B(x,4) = A(x).
a(n) ~ 2^(2*n - log(2)/8 - 5/2) * n^n / (sqrt(1-log(2)) * exp(n) * (log(2))^(2*n+1)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 13 2018
