FORMULA
If A(B(x)) = x, then g.f. A(x) and B(x) satisfy:
(1) x*A(x) - A(x)^2 = B(-x^3).
(2) A(x) = x - x*C( B(-x^3)/x^2 ), where C(x) = x + C(x)^2 is a g.f. of the Catalan numbers (A000108).
a(n) ~ (-1)^n * c * d^n / n^(3/2), where d = 3.9374997379511376037..., c = 0.034997955229443779... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jun 24 2016
