Can I apply Lagrange inversion theorem? [closed]
I want to invert the equation
$$\eta = g(x)\sqrt{1+g'(x)^2}$$
to get $x$ as a function of $\eta$. Assume $g(0)=0$, $g'(0)=0$ and $g'(x)>0$ for $x>0$ (Think $g(x) = x^p$ for $p\geq 2$ integer).

Positivity of coefficients of the inverse of a certain power series
Consider the unique formal power series $g(z)$ with $g(0)=0$ and $g'(0)=1$ satisfying the equation
$$
g(z)-g(z)^8+g(z)^{15}=z,
$$
that is the inverse of
$$
z-z^8+z^{15}
$$
in the group of formal ...
