Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
Quadratic AGM theta functions: a(q) (see A004018), b(q) (A104794), c(q) (A005883).
In the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean, if a = theta_3(q)^2, b = theta_4(q)^2 then a' := (a+b)/2 = theta_3(q^2)^2, b' := sqrt(a*b) = theta_4(q^2)^2.

FORMULA
Expansion of phi(-q)^2 = 2 * phi(q^2)^2 - phi(q)^2 = (phi(q) - 2*phi(q^4))^2 = f(-q)^3 / psi(q) = phi(-q^2)^4 / phi(q)^2 = psi(-q)^4 / psi(q^2)^2 = psi(q)^2 * chi(-q)^6 in powers of q where phi(), psi(), chi(), f() are Ramanujan theta functions.

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^2), A(x^4)) where f(u, v, w) = v * (u^2 + v^2) - 2*u*w^2.
