FORMULA

Expansion of q^(-1/3) * (eta(q) * eta(q^6)^2) / (eta(q^2) * eta(q^3)) in powers of q. - Michael Somos, Apr 12 2005

Expansion of chi(-x) * psi(x^3) in powers of x. - Michael Somos, Dec 23 2011

Expansion of f(-x, -x^5) in powers of x, where f(a, b) = Sum_{k} a^((k^2 + k)/2) * b^((k^2 - k)/2) is Ramanujan's two-variable theta function.

a(n) = b(3*n + 1) where b(n) is multiplicative and b(3^e) = 0^e, b(2^e) = - (1 + (-1)^e) / 2 if e>0, b(p^e) = (1 + (-1)^e) / 2 if p>3.

G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (144 t)) = 8^(1/2) (t/i)^(1/2) g(t) where q = exp(2 pi i t) and g(t) is g.f. for A089812. - Michael Somos, Dec 23 2011

Euler transform of period 6 sequence [ -1, 0, 0, 0, -1, -1, ...]. - Michael Somos, Apr 12 2005

|a(n)| is the characteristic function of A001082. - Michael Somos, Oct 31 2005

G.f.: Sum_{k} (-1)^k * x^((3k^2 - 2*k) / 2) = Product_{k>0} (1 - x^(6*k)) * (1 - x^(6*k - 1)) * (1 - x^(6*k - 5)) . - Michael Somos, Oct 31 2005

A002448(3*n + 1) = -2 * a(n). - Michael Somos, Jul 07 2006

a(n) = (-1)^n * A089801(n).
