Formula

G.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n may be defined by the following.
(1) 1/3 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^n * (A(x) - x^n)^(n-1).
(2) 1/3 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^(n+1) * x^(n^2) / (1 - x^n*A(x))^(n+1).
(3) A(x)/3 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^(2*n) * (A(x) - x^n)^(n-1).
(4) A(x)/3 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^(n+1) * x^(n*(n-1)) / (1 - x^n*A(x))^(n+1).
