FORMULA

G.f. A(x) satisfies: A_n(x) = Sum_{k>=0} ( A_{n+k-1}(x) )^(k+1) ; eg.:

A(x) = x + A(x)^2 + A(A(x))^3 + A(A(A(x)))^4 + A(A(A(A(x))))^5 +...;

A(A(x)) = A(x) + A(A(x))^2 + A(A(A(x)))^3 + A(A(A(A(x))))^4 +...;

A(A(A(x))) = A(A(x)) + A(A(A(x)))^2 + A(A(A(A(x))))^3 +...; ...

Series_Reversion(A(x)) = x - x^2 - A(x)^3 - A(A(x))^4 - A(A(A(x)))^5 -...

EXAMPLE

G.f.: A(x) = x + x^2 + 3*x^3 + 14*x^4 + 83*x^5 + 574*x^6 +...;

A(A(x)) = x + 2*x^2 + 8*x^3 + 44*x^4 + 292*x^5 + 2201*x^6 +...;

A(A(A(x))) = x + 3*x^2 + 15*x^3 + 96*x^4 + 715*x^5 + 5921*x^6 +...;

A(A(A(A(x)))) = x + 4*x^2 + 24*x^3 + 176*x^4 + 1464*x^5 + 13322*x^6 +...; ...

Series_Reversion(A(x)) = x - x^2 - x^3 - 4*x^4 - 21*x^5 - 133*x^6 - 959*x^7 -...

ILLUSTRATE DEFINITION:

A(x) = x + A(x)^2 + A(A(x))^3 + A(A(A(x)))^4 +... where:

A(x)^2 = x^2 + 2*x^3 + 7*x^4 + 34*x^5 + 203*x^6 + 1398*x^7 +...;

A(A(x))^3 = x^3 + 6*x^4 + 36*x^5 + 236*x^6 + 1692*x^7 +...;

A(A(A(x)))^4 = x^4 + 12*x^5 + 114*x^6 + 1032*x^7 + 9367*x^8 +...;

A(A(A(A(x))))^5 = x^5 + 20*x^6 + 280*x^7 + 3440*x^8 +...;

A(A(A(A(A(x)))))^6 = x^6 + 30*x^7 + 585*x^8 + 9490*x^9 +...; ...

PROG

(PARI) {a(n)=local(A=x, G, S); if(n<1, 0, for(j=1, n, G=x; S=x; for(i=2, n+1, G=subst(A, x, G+x*O(x^n)); S=S+G^i); A=S); polcoeff(A+x*O(x^n), n))}
