Comments

More generally, the following sums are equal:

(1) Sum_{n>=0} binomial(n+k-1, n) * r^n * (p + q^n)^n,

(2) Sum_{n>=0} binomial(n+k-1, n) * r^n * q^(n^2) / (1 - p*q^n*r)^(n+k),

for some fixed integer k; here, k = 2 and p = 1, q = x, r = x.

Formula

Generating functions.

(1) Sum_{n>=0} (n+1) * x^n * (1 + x^n)^n.

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

Example

G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 4*x^3 + 11*x^4 + 6*x^5 + 22*x^6 + 8*x^7 + 29*x^8 + 22*x^9 + 41*x^10 + 12*x^11 + 89*x^12 + 14*x^13 + 71*x^14 + 76*x^15 + 109*x^16 + 18*x^17 + 214*x^18 + 20*x^19 + 196*x^20 + ...
where we have the following series identity:
A(x) = 1 + 2*x*(1+x) + 3*x^2*(1+x^2)^2 + 4*x^3*(1+x^3)^3 + 5*x^4*(1+x^4)^4 + 6*x^5*(1+x^5)^5  + 7*x^6*(1+x^6)^6 + 8*x^7*(1+x^7)^7 + 9*x^8*(1+x^8)^8 + 10*x^9*(1+x^9)^9 + ...
is equal to
A(x) = 1/(1-x)^2 + 2*x^2/(1-x^2)^3 + 3*x^6/(1-x^3)^4 + 4*x^12/(1-x^4)^5 + 5*x^20/(1-x^5)^6 + 6*x^30/(1-x^6)^7 + 7*x^42/(1-x^7)^8 + 8*x^56/(1-x^8)^9 + ...
