COMMENTS
a(A022544(n)) = 0 where A022544 lists numbers that are not the sum of 2 squares.
Compare to: Product_{n>=1} (1-q^k)/(1+q^k) = 1 + 2*Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^n*q^(n^2), the Jacobi theta_4 function, which has the g.f: exp( Sum_{n>=1} -(sigma(2*k)-sigma(k)) * x^n/n ).

FORMULA
G.f.: Product_{n>=1} (1 - A002203(2*n-1)*x^(2*n-1) - x^(4*n-2))^2 * (1 - A002203(2*n)*x^(2*n) + x^(4*n)).
G.f.: exp( Sum_{n>=1} -(sigma(2*n)-sigma(n)) * A002203(n) * x^n/n ) where A002203(n) is the companion Pell numbers.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 - 4*x - 4*x^2 + 68*x^4 + 56*x^5 + 4*x^8 - 5572*x^9 - 4616*x^10 +...
-log(A(x)) = 2*2*x + 4*6*x^2/2 + 8*14*x^3/3 + 8*34*x^4/4 + 12*82*x^5/5 + 16*198*x^6/6 +...+ (sigma(2*n)-sigma(n))*A002203(n)*x^n/n +...
Compare to the logarithm of Jacobi theta4 H(x) = 1 + 2*Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^n*q^(n^2):
-log(H(x)) = 2*x + 4*x^2/2 + 8*x^3/3 + 8*x^4/4 + 12*x^5/5 + 16*x^6/6 + 16*x^7/7 +...+ (sigma(2*n)-sigma(n))*x^n/n +...
The g.f. equals the products:
A(x) = (1-2*x-x^2)/(1+2*x-x^2) * (1-6*x^2+x^4)/(1+6*x^2+x^4) * (1-14*x^3-x^6)/(1+14*x^3-x^6) * (1-34*x^4+x^8)/(1+34*x^4+x^8) * (1-82*x^5-x^10)/(1+82*x^5-x^10) *...* (1 - A002203(n)*x^n + (-x^2)^n)/(1 + A002203(n)*x^n + (-x^2)^n) *...
A(x) = (1-2*x-x^2)^2 * (1-6*x^2+x^4) * (1-14*x^3-x^6)^2 * (1-34*x^4+x^8) * (1-82*x^5-x^10)^2 *(1-198*x^6+x^12) * (1-478*x^7-x^14)^2 * (1-1154*x^8+x^16) *...

which are numbers that are not the sum of 2 squares.
