Formula
G.f. satisfies: A_{n}(x) = A_{n+1}(x) - A_{n+1}(x)^2 - A_{n+2}(x)^2 where A_{n+1}(x) = A_{n}(A(x)) denotes iteration with A_0(x)=x.
G.f. satisfies: A(x) = A(A(x)) - A(A(x))^2 - A(A(A(x)))^2.
G.f. satisfies: x = A( x-x^2 - A(x)^2 ).

Given g.f. A(x), A(x)/x is the unique solution to variable A in the infinite system of simultaneous equations starting with:
. A = 1 + xA^2 + xB^2;
. B = A + xB^2 + xC^2;
. C = B + xC^2 + xD^2;
. D = C + xD^2 + xE^2; ...
. also B = A(A(x))/x, C = A(A(A(x)))/x, D = A(A(A(A(x))))/x, etc.
