Radius of convergence is r = log((2+sqrt(3))/2)/2 - (2-sqrt(3))/2 = 0.17793076... where A(r) = log((sqrt(3)+1)/2) = 0.311905358...

FORMULA
E.g.f. A(x) satisfies:
(1) A(x) = Series_Reversion( x - (exp(x) - 1)^2 ).
(2) A(x) = x + Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) (exp(x)-1)^(2*n)/n!.
(3) A(x) = x*exp( Sum_{n>=1} d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) ((exp(x)-1)^(2*n)/x)/n! ).
(4) A'(x) = 1/(1 + 2*exp(A(x)) - 2*exp(2*A(x)) ).
(5) A( log(1+x) - x^2 ) = log(1+x).
a(n) = (n-1)!*(sum(k=0..n-1, binomial(n+k-1,n-1)*sum(j=0..k, (-1)^(j)*binomial(k,j)*sum(l=0..j, (binomial(j,l)*(2*(j-l))!*(-1)^(l-j)*Stirling2(n-l+j-1,2*(j-l)))/(n-l+j-1)!)))), n>0. - Vladimir Kruchinin, Feb 08 2012
a(n) ~ sqrt((1-1/sqrt(3))/2) * n^(n-1) / (exp(n) * (sqrt(3)/2 + log((1+sqrt(3))/2) - 1)^(n-1/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Dec 28 2013

exp(A(x)) - 1 = G(x) = the g.f. of A143139:
G(x) = x + 3*x^2/2! + 25*x^3/3! + 351*x^4/4! + 6901*x^5/5! + ...
G(x)^2 = 2*x^2/2! + 18*x^3/3! + 254*x^4/4! + 5010*x^5/5! + ...
