Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) := Prod_{k>=1} (1-(-q)^k) (see A121373), phi(q) := theta_3(q) := Sum_{k=-oo..oo} q^(k^2) (A000122), psi(q) := Sum_{k=0..oo} q^(k*(k+1)/2) (A10054), chi(q) := Prod_{k>=0} (1+q^(2k+1)) (A000700).

Expansion of Jacobi ((2kk')^2+(kk')^4)(2K/pi)^9/64 in powers of q. - Michael Somos Mar 09 2006

Expansion of F(phi(q)^4,q*psi(q^2)^4) in powers of q where F(u,v)=sqrt(u)*v*(u-16*v)*(u^2+4*u*v-64*v^2) and phi(),psi() are Ramanujan theta functions. - Michael Somos Mar 09 2006

a(n) is multiplicative with a(2^e) = 16^e, a(p^e) = p^(4e)*(1+(-1)^e)/2 if p == 3 (mod 4), a(p^e) = a(p)*a(p^(e-1)) - p^8*a(p^(e-2)) if p == 1 (mod 4) . - Michael Somos Mar 09 2006

G.f.: (t''''*t -28*t'''*t' +35*t''^2)/2 where t=phi(q) and f' := q*df/dq . - Michael Somos Mar 09 2006
