%e A301389 DERIVATION.
%e A301389 Define L(x,y) by
%e A301389 L(x,y) = x * (1 + y*x*L'(x,y)) / (1 + x*L'(x,y))
%e A301389 where L'(x,y) = d/dx L(x,y).
%e A301389 Also let P(n,y) denote polynonmials in y of degree n-1 such that
%e A301389 L(x,y) = Sum_{n>=1} P(n,y) * x^n.
%e A301389 Then this constant t equals the limit of the largest real root of P(n,y) = 0 as n approaches infinity.
%e A301389 Thus, L(x, y >= t) is a power series in x that consists entirely of nonnegative coefficients of x^n for n>=1, while L(x, y < t) will have negative coefficients somewhere in the series.
%e A301389 See A301305 for a list of coefficients in L(x,y).
%e A301389 EXAMPLES.
%e A301389 At y = 3: if F(x) = x * (1 + 3*x*F'(x)) / (1 + x*F'(x)), then F(x) consists entirely of positive coefficients: F(x) = x + 2*x^2 + 6*x^3 + 22*x^4 + 94*x^5 + 474*x^6 + ...
%e A301389 At y = 2: if G(x) = x * (1 + 2*x*G'(x)) / (1 + x*G'(x)), then G(x) has negative coefficients: G(x) = x + x^2 + x^3 - 5*x^5 - 23*x^6 - 80*x^7 - 256*x^8 + ...
