COMMENTS
This is an example of an application of Ramanujan's Master theorem for definite integrals; see eq. (B) on p. 186 of the Hardy reference. This application is given under (ii) on pp. 194-195; here with r = 1, p = 1, q = 2, and x and a there are y and x here, respectively.
The general formula for the exponential expansion of the r-th power of the solution y=y(x) of y^q - q*x*y - 1 = 0 which starts with y(0) = 1 is y(x)^r = Sum_{n>=0} lambda(n;r,q,p)*x^n/n! with lambda(0;r,q,p) = 1, lambda(1;r,q,p) = r and lambda(n;r,q,p) = r*Product_{j=1..n-1} (r + n*p - q*j) for n >= 2. Hardy gives a convergence condition for theorem (B) on p. 189: the class K(A,P,delta) for phi(u) = lambda(u) / Gamma(1+u), u complex, here for lambda(u) = lambda(u;r,q,p).

FORMULA
a(n) = Product_{j=1..n-1} (n + 1 - 3*j), n >=0 (empty product = 1).
E.g.f.: ((1 + sqrt(1-4*x^3))/2)^(1/3) + x/((1 + sqrt(1-4*x^3))/2)^(1/3).
E.g.f.: ((1 + sqrt(1-4*x^3))/2)^(1/3) + ((1 - sqrt(1-4*x^3))/2)^(1/3).
