FORMULA
Expansion of eta(q^2)^3 * eta(q^3)^2 * eta(q^6) / (eta(q)^2 * eta(q^4)* eta(q^12)) in powers of q.
Expansion of 2 * psi(q) * psi(q^2) * psi(q^3) / psi(q^6) - phi(q^3)^2 in powers of q. - Michael Somos, Jul 09 2013
Euler transform of period 12 sequence [ 2, -1, 0, 0, 2, -4, 2, 0, 0, -1, 2, -2, ...].
Moebius transform is period 12 sequence [ 2, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, -2, 0, 0, 0, -2, 0, ...].
a(12*n + 7) = a(12*n + 11) = 0.
a(n) = 2 * b(n) where b(n) is multiplicative and b(2^e) = b(3^e) = 1, b(p^e) = e+1 if p == 1, 5 (mod 12), a(p^e) == (1-(-1)^e)/2 if p == 7, 11 (mod 12).
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (12 t)) = 4 (t/i) g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is the g.f. for A125061.
A035154(n) = a(n) / 2 if n > 0. A008441(n) = a(4*n + 1) / 2. A125079(n) = a(2*n + 1) / 2. A113446(3*n + 1) = A002654(3*n + 1) = a(3*n + 1) / 2.
a(n) = (-1)^n * A132003(n). Expansion of (phi(-q^3) / phi(-q)) * phi(-q^2) * phi(-q^6) in powers of q where phi() is a Ramanujan theta function. - Michael Somos, Mar 05 2023
Asymptotic mean: Limit_{m->oo} (1/m) * Sum_{k=1..m} a(k) = 2*Pi/3 = 2.0943951... (A019693). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 21 2023
