Comments

Number of solutions to n = 2*a^2 + 3*b^2 in integers.

Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).

a(n) > 0 if and only if n is in A002480. a(n) < 2 if n is in A002481. - Michael Somos, Mar 01 2011

Examples

			G.f. = 1 + 2*x^2 + 2*x^3 + 4*x^5 + 2*x^8 + 4*x^11 + 2*x^12 + 4*x^14 + 2*x^18 + ...
a(0) = 1 since 0 = 2*0^2 + 3*0^2, a(5) = 4 since 5 = 2*1^2 + 3*1^2 = 2*(-1)^2 + 3*1^2 = 2*1^2 + 3*(-1)^2 = 2*(-1^2) + 3*(-1)^2.

Formula

G.f.: 1 + Sum_{k>0} x^k * (1 + x^(4*k)) * (1 + x^(6*k)) / (1 + x^(12*k)) - Sum_{k>0} Kronecker( k, 3) * x^k * (1 - x^(2*k)) / (1 + x^(4*k)).

G.f.: Sum_{i, j in Z} x^(2*i^2 + 3*j^2). - Michael Somos, Mar 01 2011

Expansion of phi(q^2) * phi(q^3) in powers of q where phi() is a Ramanujan theta function. - Michael Somos, Mar 01 2011

Euler transform of period 24 sequence [0, 2, 2, -3, 0, -1, 0, -1, 2, 2, 0, -4, 0, 2, 2, -1, 0, -1, 0, -3, 2, 2, 0, -2, ...]. - Michael Somos, Jan 20 2017

Expansion of eta(q^4)^5 * eta(q^6)^5 / (eta(q^2)^2 * eta(q^3)^2 * eta(q^8)^2 * eta(q^12)^2) in powers of q. - Michael Somos, Jan 20 2017

a(0) = 1, a(n) = (1-(-1)^t)*b(n) for n > 0, where t is the number of prime factors of n, counting multiplicity, which are == 2,3,5,11 (mod 24), and b() is multiplicative with b(p^e) = (e+1) for primes p == 1,5,7,11 (mod 24) and b(p^e) = (1+(-1)^e)/2 for primes p == 13,17,19,23 (mod 24). (This formula is Corollary 4.2 in the Berkovich-Yesilyurt paper). - Jeremy Lovejoy, Nov 14 2024
