Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

FORMULA
Expansion of theta2(q^(4/3)) * (theta2(q^2)*psi(3, q^6) + theta3(q^2)*psi(6, q^6)) in q^(1/6) where psi(k, q) = Sum_{m=-infinity..infinity} q^((m+1/k)^2) and theta2 and theta3 are Jacobi theta functions [From Sloane and Teo]. - Sean A. Irvine, Sep 25 2016
