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

Ramanujan's theta function f(a, b) = Sum a^{n*(n+1)/2} * b^{n*(n-1)/2}, n=-inf..inf.

This sequence is the concatenation of the base-b digits in the sequence b^n, for any base b >= 2. - Davis Herring (herring(AT)lanl.gov), Nov 16 2004

Number of partitions of n into distinct parts such that the greatest part equals the number of all parts, see also A047993; a(n)=A117195(n,0) for n>0; a(n)=1-A117195(n,1) for n>1. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Mar 03 2006
