Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) := Prod_{k>=1} (1-(-q)^k) (see A121373), phi(q) := theta_3(q) := Sum_{k=-oo..oo} q^(k^2) (A000122), psi(q) := Sum_{k=0..oo} q^(k*(k+1)/2) (A010054), chi(q) := Prod_{k>=0} (1+q^(2k+1)) (A000700).

FORMULA
Expansion of phi(q) * psi(q^4) in powers of q where psi(), phi() are Ramanujan theta functions.
Expansion of q^(-1) * (eta(q^4)^5 * eta(q^16)^2) / (eta(q^2)^2 * eta(q^8)^3) in powers of q^2.
a(n) = b(2*n + 1) where b(n) is multiplicative and b(2^e) = 0^e, b(p^e) = e+1 if p == 1, 3 (mod 8), b(p^e) = (1+(-1)^e)/2 if p == 5, 7 (mod 8).
Euler transform of period 8 sequence [ 2, -3, 2, 0, 2, -3, 2, -2, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (16 t)) = 2^(1/2) (t/i) g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is g.f. for A133692. - Michael Somos, Mar 16 2011
G.f.: (Sum_{k} x^k^2) * (Sum_{k>=0} x^(2*k^2 + 2*k)).
G.f.: Sum_{k>=0} a(k) * x^(2*k + 1) = Sum_{k>=0} F(x^(2*k + 1), x^(3*(2*k + 1))) where F(x, y) = (x + y) / (1 + x*y).
From Peter Bala, Jan 07 2021: (Start)
Conjectural g.f.s: A(x) = Sum_{n >= 0} (-1)^(n*(n-1)/2)*x^n/(1 - x^(2*n+1)).
A(x) = Sum_{n = -oo..oo} (-1)^n*x^(2*n)/(1 - x^(4*n+1)) = Sum_{n = -oo..oo} (-1)^n*x^(2*n+1)/(1 - x^(4*n+3)). (End)
Asymptotic mean: Limit_{m->oo} (1/m) * Sum_{k=1..m} a(k) = Pi/(2*sqrt(2)) = 1.1107207... (A093954). - Amiram Eldar, Dec 28 2023
