FORMULA
G.f. A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n) * x^n satisfies the following relations.
(1) A(x)^4 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^n * (1 - x^(n+1))^(n+1) * A(x)^n.
(2) x*A(x)^5 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * x^(n*(n-1)) / ( (1 - x^n)^n * A(x)^n ).
(3) -x*A(x)^6 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * x^(n*(n-1)) * A(x)^n / (1 - x^n*A(x))^n.
(4) -A(x)^7 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^n * (A(x) - x^(n+1))^(n+1) / A(x)^n.
(5) 0 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} x^n * (1 - x^(n+1)*A(x))^(n+1) / A(x)^n.
(6) 0 = Sum_{n=-oo..+oo} (-1)^n * x^(n*(n-1)) * A(x)^n / (A(x) - x^n)^n.
