FORMULA
G.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) 1 - x = Sum_{n>=0} x^n * ( x^n + (-1)^n*A(x) )^n.
(2) 1 - x = Sum_{n>=0} x^(n*(n+1)) / ( 1 + (-1)^n*x^(n+1)*A(x) )^(n+1).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 3*x^2 + 7*x^3 + 16*x^4 + 41*x^5 + 107*x^6 + 286*x^7 + 782*x^8 + 2179*x^9 + 6172*x^10 + 17702*x^11 + 51272*x^12 + ...
where
1 - x = 1 + x*(x - A(x)) + x^2*(x^2 + A(x))^2 + x^3*(x^3 - A(x))^3 + x^4*(x^4 + A(x))^4 + x^5*(x^5 - A(x))^5 + x^6*(x^6 + A(x))^6 + ...
Also,
1 - x = 1/(1 + x*A(x)) + x^2/(1 - x^2*A(x))^2 + x^6/(1 + x^3*A(x))^3 + x^12/(1 - x^4*A(x))^4 + x^20/(1 + x^5*A(x))^5 + ...
Specific values.
