Comments

Suppose s = (c(0), c(1), c(2),...) is a sequence and p(S) is a polynomial. Let S(x) = c(0)*x + c(1)*x^2 + c(2)*x^3 + ... and T(x) = (-p(0) + 1/p(S(x)))/x. The p-INVERT of s is the sequence t(s) of coefficients in the Maclaurin series for T(x). Taking p(S) = 1 - S gives the "INVERT" transform of s, so that p-INVERT is a generalization of the "INVERT" transform (e.g., A033453).

Formula

G.f.: (-1 + 3 x - 4 x^2 + 4 x^3 - x^4)/(-1 + 6 x - 13 x^2 + 14 x^3 - 9 x^4 + 2 x^5).

a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 13*a(n-2) + 14*a(n-3) - 9*a(n-4) + 2*a(n-5) for n >= 5.
