FORMULA

Expansion of (phi(q) / phi(-q))^2 = (phi(q) / phi(-q^2))^4 = (phi(-q^2) / phi(-q))^4 = (psi(q) / psi(-q))^4 = (chi(q)^2 / chi(-q^2))^4 = (chi(q) / chi(-q))^4 = (chi(-q^2) / chi(-q)^2)^4 = (f(q) / f(-q))^4 in powers of q where phi(), psi(), chi() are Ramanujan theta functions. - Michael Somos, Aug 01 2011

Expansion of Fricke tau_8(omega) / 2 + 1 in powers of q = exp(2 pi i z).

Expansion of elliptic 1 / sqrt(1 - lambda(z)) = 1 / k' in powers of nome q = exp(pi*i*z).

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [8, -4, 8, 0, ...]. - Michael Somos, Jul 07 2005

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^2)) where f(u, v) = (1 + u)^2 - 4*u*v^2. - Michael Somos, Nov 14 2006

G.f.: (theta_3/theta_4)^2 = (Sum_{k} x^k^2)/(Sum_{k} (-x)^k^2)^2 = (Product_{k>0} (1-x^(4k-2))/((1-x^(4k-1))(1-x^(4k-3)))^2)^4.

A139820(n) = (-1)^n * a(n). 8 * A107035(n) = a(n) unless n=0. 2 * A131126(n) = a(n) unless n=0. Convolution inverse of A139820.

1 + 8*q + 32*q^2 + 96*q^3 + 256*q^4 + 624*q^5 + 1408*q^6 + 3008*q^7 + ...
