FORMULA
G.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n satisfies the following formulas.
(1) 1/x = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} A(x)^n * (1 + A(x)^n)^(n+1).
(2) A(x) = x * Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} A(x)^(n^2) / (1 + A(x)^(n+1))^n.
(3) 0 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * A(x)^n * (1 + A(x)^n)^n.
(4) 0 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * A(x)^(n^2-n) / (1 + A(x)^n)^n.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = x + 3*x^2 + 10*x^3 + 38*x^4 + 164*x^5 + 783*x^6 + 4005*x^7 + 21400*x^8 + 117602*x^9 + 659019*x^10 + 3748736*x^11 + 21588796*x^12 + ...
