COMMENTS

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

G.f. for pairs of partitions of type R.

G.f. for the number of partitions of 2n in which all odd parts occur with multplicity 2 and the even parts occur with multiplicity 1. Also g.f. for the number of partitions of 2n free of multiples of 4. All odd parts occur with even multiplicities. The even parts occur with multiplicity 1. - Noureddine Chair (n.chair(AT)rocketmail.com), Feb 10 2005

This is also the number of overpartitions of an integer into odd parts. - James A. Sellers (sellersj(AT)math.psu.edu), Feb 18 2008

The Higher Algebra reference on page 517 has an unnumbered example between 251 and 252: "If u^6-v^6+5u^2v^2(u^2-v^2)+4uv(1-u^4v^4)=0, prove that (u^2-v^2)^6=16u^2v^2(1-u^8)(1-v^8). [PEMB. COLL. CAMB.]". It turns out that this is two forms of the modular equation of degree 5. - Michael Somos, May 12 2011

FORMULA

Expansion of (1 - k^2)^(-1/8) = k'^(-1/4) in powers of the nome q = exp(-pi K'/K).

Expansion of eta(q^2)^3 / (eta(q^4) * eta(q)^2) in powers of q.

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [2, -1, 2, 0, ...].

(theta_3(q) / theta_4(q))^(1/2) = (phi(q) / phi(-q))^(1/2) = chi(q) / chi(-q) = psi(q) / psi(-q) = f(q) / f(-q) where phi, chi, psi, f are Ramanujan theta functions.

G.f.: A(x) = exp( 2*sum_{n>=0} sigma(2*n+1)/(2*n+1)*x^(2*n+1) ). - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Mar 01 2004

G.f. satisfies: A(-x) = 1/A(x), (A(x)+A(-x))/2 = A(x^2)*A(x^4)^2, A(x) = sqrt((A(x^2)^4+1)/2) + sqrt((A(x^2)^4-1)/2). - Paul D. Hanna (pauldhanna(AT)juno.com), Mar 27 2004

Another g.f.: 1/product_{ k>= 1 } (1+x^(2*k))*(1-x^(2*k-1))^2. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Mar 29 2004

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^3)) where f(u, v) = (u - v^3) * (v + 2*u^3) - u * (u^3 - v). - Michael Somos, Aug 03 2011

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^5)) where f(u, v) = (u^2 - v^2)^6 - 16 * u^2 * v^2 * (1 - u^8) * (1 - v^8). - Michael Somos, May 12 2011

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^7)) where f(u, v) = (1 - u^8) * (1 - v^8) - (1 - u*v)^8. - Michael Somos, Jan 01 2006

G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1/(32*t)) = 2^(-1/2)*g(t) where q = exp(2*Pi*i*t) and g() is g.f. for A029383. - Michael Somos, Aug 03 2011

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

G.f.: Product_{ k >= 1 } (1 + x^(2*k-1))*(1 + x^k) = product_{ k >= 1 } (1 + x^(2*k-1))/(1 - x^(2*k-1)).

A080015(n) = a(n) * (-1)^(n\2). A108494(n) = (-1)^n * a(n). Convolution inverse is A108494. Convolution square is A007096.
