This is essentially the q-expansion of the Jacobi theta function theta_2(q). (In theta_2 one has to ignore the initial factor of 2*q^(1/4) and then replace q by q^(1/2). See also A005369.) - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 03 2014

Ramanujan's theta function f(a, b) = Sum_{n=-inf..inf} a^(n*(n+1)/2) * b^(n*(n-1)/2).
This sequence is the concatenation of the base-b digits in the sequence b^n, for any base b >= 2. - Davis Herring (herring(AT)lanl.gov), Nov 16 2004

From the sum and product representations of theta_2(0, sqrt(q))/(2*q^(1/8)) function. The last product, given by Vladeta Jovovic above, is obtained from the second to last one by an Euler identity, proved via f(x) := Product_{n >= 1} (1 - x^(2*n-1))*Product_{n >= 1} (1 + x^n) = f(x^2), by moving the odd-indexed factors of the second product to the first product.

E_{infinity,4} is the unique normalized weight-4 modular form for Gamma_0(2) with simple zeros at i*infinity. Since this has level 2, it is not a cusp form, in contrast to A002408.
a(n+1) is the number of representations of n as a sum of 8 triangular numbers (from A000217). See the Ono et al. link, Theorem 5.
Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
a(n) gives the sum of cubes of divisors d of n such that n/d is odd. This is called sigma^#3(n) in the Ono et al. link. See a formula below. - _Wolfdieter Lang, Jan 12 2017
