COMMENTS

The Cayley reference is actually to A079006. - Michael Somos Feb 24 2011

In  the mathoverflow link is the conjecture that a(n) == a(9*n + 2) (mod 4).

FORMULA

G.f.: Product ( 1 - x^k )^(-c(k)); c(k) = 2, 2, 2, 0, 2, 2, 2, 0, ....

Convolution square of A001935. A079006(n) = (-1)^n a(n).

Expansion of q^(-1/4) * (1/2) * (k / k')^(1/2) in powers of q.

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [2, 2, 2, 0, ...].

Given g.f. A(x), then B(x) = (x * A(x^4))^4 satisfies 0 = f(B(x), B(x^2)) where f(u, v) = (1 + 16*u) * (1 + 16*v) * v - u^2. - Michael Somos Jul 09 2005

Given g.f. A(x), then B(x) = x * A(x^4) satisfies 0 = f(B(x), B(x^3)) where f(u, v) = (u^2 + v^2)^2 - u*v * (1 + 4*u*v)^2. - Michael Somos Jul 09 2005

G.f.: (Product_{k>0} (1 + x^(2*k)) / (1 - x^(2*k - 1)))^2 = (Product_{k>0} (1 - x^(4*k)) / (1 - x^k))^2.

Equals A000009 convolved with A098613 - Gary W. Adamson [qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com Mar 24 2011]
