FORMULA
From Michael Somos, Aug 31 2012: (Start)
Expansion of -11 + (1 + 3*F)^2 * (1/F + 1 + 3*F) where F = eta(q^3) * eta(q^33) / (eta(q) * eta(q^11)) (= g.f. of A128663) in powers of q.
G.f. is Fourier series of a level 11 modular function. f(-1 / (11 t)) = f(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t).
A000521(n) = a(n) + 11 * a(11*n) unless n=0. [Atkin (1967) p. 22]
a(n) = A003295(n) = A058205(n) = A128525(n) = A134784(n) unless n=0. (End)
a(n) ~ exp(4*Pi*sqrt(n/11)) / (sqrt(2)*11^(1/4)*n^(3/4)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 07 2017
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1/q - 5 + 17*q + 46*q^2 + 116*q^3 + 252*q^4 + 533*q^5 + 1034*q^6 + ...
MATHEMATICA
QP = QPochhammer; F = q*QP[q^3]*(QP[q^33]/(QP[q]*QP[q^11])); s = q*(-11 + (1 + 3*F)^2*(1/F + 1 + 3*F)) + O[q]^40; CoefficientList[s, q] (* Jean-François Alcover, Nov 13 2015, from 1st formula *)
PROG
(PARI) q='q+O('q^50); F =q*eta(q^3)*eta(q^33)/(eta(q)*eta(q^11)); Vec(-11 + (1 + 3*F)^2*(3*F + 1 + 1/F)) \\ G. C. Greubel, May 10 2018
