Programs

Mathematica

terms = 55; offset = 3; t[i_] := Sum[x^(n*i)/(1 + x^n)^(2*i), {n, 1, terms + 5}]; s = Series[(t[1]^2 - t[2])/2, {x, 0, terms + 5 }]; A002130 = CoefficientList[s, x][[offset + 1 ;; terms + offset]] (* Jean-François Alcover, Dec 11 2014, after Vladeta Jovovic *)

Formula

G.f.: (t(1)^2-t(2))/2 where t(i) = Sum_{n>=1} x^(n*i)/(1+x^n)^(2*i), i=1..2. - Vladeta Jovovic, Sep 21 2007
