generating function for the reciprocal Catalan numbers
The series
whose coefficients are the reciprocal of the Catalan numbers , has as a generating function
To deduce such a formula the easy way, one starts from the generating function of the reciprocal central binomial coefficients and having into account the relation
for each term in the corresponding series and applied to the function in the region of uniform convergence
.Another method is almost exaclty the same like in the derivation of the generating function for the reciprocal central binomial coefficients.
