SeqFans,
Consider the family of power series A(x) and G(x) defined by the following.
For a fixed positive integer n, define an integer series A(x) such that:
A(x)^(2^(n+1)) = A(x^2)^(2^n) + 2^(n+1)*x
then there exists an integer series G(x) that satisfies:
A(x)^(2^n) = 1/G(x)^(2^n) + 4^n*x*G(x)^(2^n) and
A(x)^(2^n) = 1/G(x^2)^(2^(n-1)) + 2^n*x*G(x^2)^(2^(n-1)).
Please see the examples shown below.
Q: What other formulas can be given for the g.f.s A(x) and G(x)?
I'd also like to know any asymptotics or limits that may exist.
Best Regards,
Paul
P.s.: I am in the process of formatting these sequences for submission,
so not all are yet in the OEIS.
