Comments

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

Examples

			G.f. = 1 - 2*q - 2*q^4 + 8*q^5 - 4*q^8 - 10*q^9 + 8*q^12 + 8*q^13 + ...

Programs

Mathematica

a[ n_] := SeriesCoefficient[ EllipticTheta[ 4, 0, q] EllipticTheta[ 4, 0, q^4]^2, {q, 0, n}]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 80}]

PARI

{a(n) = local(A); if( n<0, 0, A = x * O(x^n); polcoeff( eta(x + A)^2 * eta(x^4 + A)^4 / (eta(x^2 + A) * eta(x^8 + A)^2), n))};

Formula

Expansion of eta(q)^2 * eta(q^4)^4 / (eta(q^2) * eta(q^8)^2) in powers of q.

Euler transform of period 8 sequence [ -2, -1, -2, -5, -2, -1, -2, -3, ...].

a(n) = (-1)^(mod(n,4) = 1) * A116597(n).

a(4*n + 2) = a(4*n + 3) = 0. a(4*n) = A212885(n). a(4*n + 1) = -(-1)^n * A005876(n).
