FORMULA
a(n)=b(2n+1). A003080(n)=c(2n+1).
G.f.: B(x)=C(x)+(C(x^3)-C(x)^3)/3.
G.f.: g(x) + x*(g(x^3) - g(x)^3)/3 where g(x) is the g.f. of A003080. - Andrew Howroyd, Feb 18 2020
MATHEMATICA
terms = 31;
nmax = 2 terms;
A[_] = 0;
Do[A[x_] = x Exp[Sum[(A[x^n]^2 + A[x^(2n)])/(2n), {n, 1, terms}]] + O[x]^nmax // Normal, {nmax}];
g[x_] = (A[x] /. x^k_ -> x^((k - 1)/2)) - x + 1;
g[x] + x((g[x^3] - g[x]^3)/3) + O[x]^terms // CoefficientList[#, x]& (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 26 2020, after Andrew Howroyd *)
