FORMULA
O.g.f. A = A(x) satisfies:
(1) 0 = Sum_{n>=1} (3 + (-1)^n - 2*A(x))^n * x^n / n.
(2) 0 = arctanh(2*x - 2*x*A) - log(1 - 4*x^2*(2 - A)^2)/2.
(3) 1 - 4*x^2*(2 - A)^2 = (1 + 2*x - 2*x*A) / (1 - 2*x + 2*x*A).
(4) A(x) = 1 + (A - 2)^2*x + 2*(A - 1)*(A - 2)^2*x^2.
(5) 0 = 2*(A - 1)*(A - 2)^2*x^2 + (A - 2)^2*x - (A - 1).
(6) x = ( sqrt( (A-2)^4 + 8*(A-1)^2*(A-2)^2 ) - (A-2)^2 ) / (4*(A-1)*(A-2)^2).
(7) A(x) = 2 - (1/x) * Series_Reversion( x + x^2/(1 - 2*x^2) ).
EXAMPLE
O.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + x - 2*x^2 + 7*x^3 - 26*x^4 + 102*x^5 - 420*x^6 + 1787*x^7 - 7794*x^8 + 34666*x^9 - 156636*x^10 + 716982*x^11 - 3317700*x^12 + 15494156*x^13 - 72935624*x^14 + 345701843*x^15 - 1648489762*x^16 + ...
such that
0 = (1 - A(x))*(2*x) + (2 - A(x))^2*(2*x)^2/2 + (1 - A(x))^3*(2*x)^3/3 + (2 - A(x))^4*(2*x)^4/4 + (1 - A(x))^5*(2*x)^5/5 + (2 - A(x))^6*(2*x)^6/6 + (1 - A(x))^7*(2*x)^7/7 + (2 - A(x))^8*(2*x)^8/8 + (1 - A(x))^9*(2*x)^9/9 + ...
SPECIAL ARGUMENTS.
A( (3 - sqrt(17))/6 ) = 1/2.
A( (15 - sqrt(513))/40 ) = 1/3.
ODD TERMS.
