Related identity: 0 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} n*(n+1)/2 * x^(2*n) * (y - x^n)^(n-1), which holds formally for all y.

FORMULA
G.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n satisfies the following.
(1) 1 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} n*(n+1)/2 * x^n * (1 - x^(n+1))^n * A(x)^(n+1).
(2) 1 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * n*(n-1)/2 * x^(n*(n-2)) / ((1 - x^(n-1))^n * A(x)^(n-1)).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 3*x + 15*x^2 + 114*x^3 + 1086*x^4 + 10824*x^5 + 114382*x^6 + 1252002*x^7 + 14083275*x^8 + 161810358*x^9 + 1890774909*x^10 + ...
